Dr. Lipton’s clinical work focuses on headache medicine, particularly chronic migraine.  He is interested in integrative approaches that combine pharmacologic and behavioral treatments with neuromodulatory devices in a patient-centered fashion.  The Montefiore Headache Center has a large full-time faculty and trains two fellows in headache medicine annually.
Research Focus
Dr. Lipton's research interests include clinical trials on headache disorders, Alzheimer's disease, and other dementias. I also conduct epidemiologic studies and develop outcome measures in both areas.
