ANNE
M. COMI, MD
Dr. Anne
Comi received her medical degree at the SUNY Buffalo School of medicine
following which she completed a residency in pediatrics at Children's Hospital
of Buffalo and a pediatric neurology residency at Johns Hopkins Hospital.
Her clinical expertise is in the diagnosis and treatment of the neurologic
aspects of Sturge-Weber Syndrome. She has served on the scientific advisory
board of the Sturge-Weber Foundation. Her research interests center on studying
the pathologic processes involved in the neurologic complications of Sturge-Weber
Syndrome, including the effects of chronic hypoxia and glucose deprivation
on brain tissue and neurons, as well as the interactions between seizures
and impaired blood flow in the brain. Through both clinical and basic research,
she hopes to determine approaches to preventing neurodegeneration resulting
from chronically impaired blood flow in Sturge-Weber syndrome.
