Dr. Subramanian is a graduate of Calicut Medical College, Kozhikode, India and subsequently trained at University of Pittsburgh, Pittsburgh, USA for his neurology residency and his fellowship in Movement Disorders and Advanced Neurology at Emory University, Atlanta, GA, USA under Dr. Mahlon DeLong, one of the key figures in Movement Disorders and Basal Ganglia Physiology. He has been continuously NIH grant funded for the past 25 years. Dr. Subramanian was the first to show that basal ganglia neurophysiology is not normalized in Parkinson’s disease (PD) with oral medications and that reestablishing synaptic connectivity between the dopaminergic grafts and the striatum is capable of restoring normal neurophysiology. He recently demonstrated the putative role of maladaptive nigrovagal plasticity in the progression of PD. He is now leading several cross-disciplinary translational collaborations between clinicians, scientists and engineers. Dr. Subramanian is an internationally acclaimed clinical neurologist and has contributed to several clinical trials that led to the FDA approval of many currently used treatments for PD, spasticity, dystonia and dyskinesias. He has collaborated with small and large pharmaceutical companies, biotechnology giants, early-stage tech startups and with information technology giants such as Apple. He has also contributed to neuroimaging studies in PD.

He is an elected fellow of the American Society for Neural Therapy and Repair, the largest peer organization for neural transplantation and gene therapy. He is an active investigator member of the Parkinson Study Group and a fellow of the International Association of Parkinsonism and Related Disorders and the American Academy of Neurology. He is the president-elect of the Association of Indian Neurologists in America. Dr. Subramanian has facilitated many inter-disciplinary collaborations at University at Toledo as the inaugural Senior Associate Dean for Research building teams between basic scientists, clinicians, engineers, statisticians and other related disciplines to advance discoveries in medicine. He holds an MBA from Penn State Smeal College of Business, Certificate in Leadership Development for Physicians in Academic Health Centers from the Harvard TH Chan School of Public Health and is a Certified Physician Executive via the American Association of Physician Leadership. Dr. Subramanian is an internationally recognized educator, author, and scholar with over 200 publications, service on several NIH peer review study sections, editorial appointments, visiting professorships and international awards. Dr. Subramanian serves as the Chair of Neurology at Howard University.
