Dr. Joshua Barzilay | Clinical Neuroscience | Best Researcher Award

Kaiser Permanente of Georgia, Emory School of Medicine | United States

Dr. Joshua I. Barzilay is a senior clinician–scientist and board-certified endocrinologist whose research spans diabetes, hypertension, cardiovascular disease, metabolic syndrome, and aging, integrating epidemiology with long-term clinical outcomes. His early work included oncology and hematology research, followed by a sustained focus on endocrine and metabolic disorders during his tenure at Kaiser Permanente of Georgia and Emory University School of Medicine. Dr. Barzilay has made influential contributions to large, multicenter clinical and population-based studies, including ALLHAT, ACCORD/ACCORDION, and the Cardiovascular Health Study, where he has served on steering committees and specialty working groups. His research has clarified the impact of glucose dysregulation, insulin resistance, and antihypertensive therapies on cardiovascular morbidity, mortality, and incident diabetes, particularly in older adults. A major theme of his work is the relationship between metabolic syndrome, frailty, autonomic function, and cardiovascular risk, providing evidence to guide treatment strategies in complex patients. In addition to his research, Dr. Barzilay has played a key role in national diabetes and hypertension guideline development, medical education, and dissemination of evidence-based care, shaping clinical practice across endocrinology and primary care.

Dr. Jaleel Miyan | Clinical Neuroscience | Best Researcher Award

Dr. Jaleel Miyan | The University of Manchester | United Kingdom

Dr. Jaleel Ahmad Miyan is a distinguished British neuroscientist and Senior Lecturer at the Faculty of Biology, Medicine & Health, Division of Neuroscience, University of Manchester, with a long-standing career dedicated to understanding cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) physiology and its role in neurological disorders. As President of the Society for Research into Hydrocephalus & Spina Bifida and a Fellow of both the Higher Education Academy and the Royal Society of Biology, he is recognized internationally for his expertise in cerebral folate metabolism and hydrocephalus research. His principal work focuses on fetal-onset and neonatal hydrocephalus, aiming to develop a non-invasive, non-surgical treatment to address global disparities in care. Miyan has supervised numerous PhD and Masters students, postdoctoral researchers, and technicians, fostering research excellence. He has published over 120 peer-reviewed research papers and reviews, with an h-index of 34, and his work has garnered substantial citations, reflecting his impact in neuroscience. He has served on editorial boards, contributed to major research projects, and secured significant funding for studies on folate metabolism in neurological conditions. Miyan’s scholarship is accessible through his ResearchGate, Orcid, and Google Scholar profiles, showcasing his profound contributions to advancing neuroscience and improving treatments for devastating neurological conditions.
