Dr. Alex Rajput MD, FRCPC
Professor Neurology

 Dr. Alex Rajput received his MD degree with Distinction from the University of Saskatchewan in 1994.  He trained in Neurology at the University of Iowa from 1994 to 1998, followed by further training at the University of Saskatchewan including a one year Clinical Movement Disorders fellowship.  He received his American Board Certification in Neurology in 1999 and his FRCPC (Neurology) in 2000.  Dr. Rajput joined the faculty at the University of Saskatchewan in 2000 and is a Professor in the Division of Neurology, Department of Medicine.

He has been the Director of the Movement Disorder Frozen Brain Studies Laboratory since 2003, and in 2008 was named Director of the Movement Disorders Program at the University of Saskatchewan in 2008.  He has been a member of the Neurology residency training program since 2000 and was the Residency Program Director from 2005-2010.  He was an Examiner for the Royal College of Physicians and Surgeons of Canada from 2010-14.

He is currently a member of the editorial board for both the Canadian Journal of Neurological Sciences and Parkinsonism and Related Disorders and also reviews articles for Neurology and Movement Disorders.  He has been a member of the Parkinson Study Group since 2000 and a member of their Credentials Committee from 2010-14.  Dr. Rajput was a member of the Parkinson Society of Canada Scientific Advisory Board from 2008-12.  He is currently a member of the International Essential Tremor Foundation (IETF) Medical Advisory Board and the International Parkinson and Movement Disorder Society Continuing Medical Education Committee.

Dr. Rajput’s outpatient practice focuses on Parkinson’s disease, tremor, dystonia and other movement disorders, and since 2012 he has been a visiting medical staff, Regina Qu’Appelle Health Region to conduct regular movement disorders clinics in Regina.  He supervises senior resident clinics on a regular basis and his outpatient clinics are often attended by residents and students.  He teaches both undergraduate and postgraduate trainees and he received the Voll Award for Teaching Excellence in 2013 as voted by the Neurology residents. 

Dr. Rajput has primary interest in Parkinson's disease and other parkinsonian conditions, essential tremor and dystonia.   He is involved in both clinical and basic science research with local, national and international collaborators.  He was trained in frozen brain tissue processing by Dr. Oleh Hornykiewicz in 2000, which has allowed for much more widespread collaborations.  A recent invited paper of the Saskatchewan Movement Disorders Program was published in the Canadian Journal of Neurological Sciences in 2015.

He has authored or co-authored 16 book chapters and authored or contributed to more than 120 peer-reviewed publications.  He has been invited to present locally, nationally, and internationally.

Dr. Rajput has received project funding including collaborative peer-reviewed grants from Parkinson Society Canada, CIHR, and the International Essential Tremor Foundation.  The primary financial support for research activities of the Movement Disorders Program has been from the Regina Curling Classic and the Dr. Ali Rajput Endowment for Parkinson’s Disease and Movement Disorders, Royal University Hospital Foundation with significant financial contributions from the Greystone Golf Classic.
