Dr. Tramontano specializes in the practice of clinical neuropsychology. He is the Director of the Neurodegenerative Disease Prevention and Treatment Center at the NeuroCognitive & Behavioral Institute (NCBI) and the Sleep Study and Treatment Center. He also directs the functional neurodiagnostics and non-invasive neuromodulation treatment program.
Clinical Research
Dr. Tramontano conducts a variety of sponsored and investigator initiated pharmacological, nutraceutical, neuromodulation and neurodiagnostic research. As a Principal Investigator Dr. Tramontano has completed approximately 70 clinical research studies. His clinical research experience in drug development ranges from bioavailability / bioequivalent studies as well as first in humans Phase I studies through Phase IV clinical trials. Most of his clinical research has been investigating functional brain mapping, neuromodulation, behavioral, biological, and pharmacological treatments for patients with a variety of cognitive and neuropsychiatric conditions, in particular – neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer’s disease. He has authored several published neuroscience-related articles in medical journals.
Academic
Dr. Tramontano has completed fellowship training at Brown University School of Medicine in clinical neuropsychology, neuromodulation training at Harvard Medical School Sidney Baer Clinical Fellowship training at the Boston Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center at the Berenson Allen Center for Non-invasive Brain Stimulation and is an fMRI Visiting Fellow at Harvard Medical School’s Athinoula A. Martinos Center for Bioimaging. He completed his dual internship in clinical psychology and clinical neuropsychology at Tufts University School of Medicine and the Boston VA Medical Center Consortium. He completed his Ph.D. in Clinical Psychology at St. John’s University and his under graduate studies at Boston University.
Dr. Tramontano is a Clinical Assistant Professor of Psychiatry at Rutgers Medical School – formerly UMDNJ-Robert Wood Johnson Medical School and was a faculty member of the Cerebral Dysfunction Clinic at the medical school. He is an Assistant Professor in Psychology at St. John’s University where he taught clinical neuropsychology in the Ph.D. Clinical Psychology Program.

However, evidence has suggested an intimate relationship between the regional and inter-regional profiles. This research aimed to investigate the influence of functional connectivity on regional spontaneous activity.
