Lefkos T. Middleton is a Cypriot neurologist and academic. He is Professor of Neurology at Imperial College London and has worked in clinical neuroscience, neuroepidemiology, and ageing research.[1]
He is the founder of the The Cyprus Institute of Neurology and Genetics (CING), which was established in the early 1990s and became a major centre for neurological and genetic research in Cyprus.[2]
Middleton studied medicine and specialised in neurology at the Université Louis Pasteur in Strasbourg, France, where he completed his medical training and postgraduate studies in neurology.[3]
In 1990, Middleton founded the Cyprus Institute of Neurology and Genetics following the award of international funding, serving as its first chairman during its formative years.[4]
After leaving the institute in the late 1990s, he continued his academic and clinical career in the United Kingdom. He joined Imperial College London, where he holds a professorship in neurology and is involved in research on neurological disorders and ageing.[5]
In parallel with his academic work, Middleton has practised as a consultant neurologist within the National Health Service in the United Kingdom.[6]
