Dr David Hilton-Jones is Consultant Neurologist at the University
of Oxford and John Radcliffe Hospital, Oxford UK and Clinical
Director, Muscular Dystrophy Campaign Muscle and Nerve Centre. Dr
Hilton-Jones developed an interest in muscle diseases when working
for Dr John Morgan-Hughes at Queen Square, London before spending a
year training with the late Professor George Karpati in Montreal.
He was appointed as a consultant neurologist in Oxford, UK with
the
intention of developing services for patients with neuromuscular
disorders and is now Clinical Director of the Oxford Muscle & Nerve
Centre, supported by the Muscular Dystrophy Campaign. He is also
Clinical
Director of the Oxford Myasthenia Centre, supported by the
Myasthenia Gravis Association. His major interest is in combining
clinical practice and research.
Dr Martin R. Turner is a Consultant Neurologist and Senior
Clinician Scientist within the Oxford University Nuffield
Department of Clinical Neurosciences. His research focuses on
understanding the variation in the clinical presentations of
amyotrophic lateral sclerosis/motor neuron disease (ALS/MND) and
finding biomarkers for them. In particular Dr Turner is interested
in the role of the brain in ALS/MND, and using advanced
neuroimaging to explore structure and function through his
affiliation
with the Oxford Centre for the Functional Magnetic Resonance
Imaging of the Brain: FMRIB.
