Davide Balos Cappon, M.S., Ph.D., is a post-doctoral research fellow at the Hinda and Arthur Marcus Institute for Aging Research at Hebrew SeniorLife.
A central theme of Dr. Cappon's research is preserving and lengthening healthy aging across the lifespan. Serving on the executive committee of the Hebrew SeniorLife's Healthy Aging Initiative in collaboration with investigators from the Marcus Institute, Dr. Cappon is working on expanding our understanding of multimodal factors determining lifelong health. The initiative will identify physical and mental health markers across the lifespan and promote multimodal interventions that support health and prevent age-related cognitive decline, adopting a whole-person approach to health, aging, and well-being. Dr. Cappon is also investigating the novel use of personalized and home-based non-invasive brain stimulation to restore mental health and for the treatment of depression in the older adult population.
Prior to coming to Hebrew SeniorLife, he worked at the functional neurosurgery unit at the National Hospital of Neurology and Neurosurgery in London UK, earned a fellowship, and was course faculty at the Berenson-Allen Center for Non-Invasive Brain Stimulation at Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center, Harvard Medical School.
