Biography

Dr. Cameron Jeter holds a PhD in neuroscience, with specific training in clinical and translational research. She has a strong and well-demonstrated interest in how oral health alters the trajectory of neurodegenerative disorders (e.g., Parkinson's disease or Alzheimer's disease) and how these diseases impact oral health. She also works to improve access to healthcare for adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities (I/DD). At Kansas College of Osteopathic Medicine, Dr. Jeter serves as Chair of the Department of Biomedical Sciences and teaches in the Medical Education track.

In addition to her position at Kansas College of Osteopathic Medicine, Dr. Jeter is an adjunct faculty member at The University of Texas Health Science Center at Houston.
