About

Polina Perlman Danieli is a clinical researcher whose work bridges child psychiatry and neuropsychology, with a particular focus on rare and complex intersections of psychopathology. Her most cited study, "Co-existence of Capgras syndrome and OCD in children: Case studies," explores the rare co-occurrence of Capgras syndrome—a delusional belief that a loved one has been replaced by an imposter—alongside Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder in pediatric populations. Through detailed case analyses, Danieli illuminates how these conditions can manifest together in children, challenging conventional diagnostic boundaries and offering critical insights for clinicians navigating overlapping symptoms. Though her citation count is modest, her work addresses an underexplored niche, contributing to the growing literature on early-onset psychotic and obsessive-compulsive disorders. Danieli’s research underscores the importance of nuanced, case-based approaches in child psychiatry, providing a foundation for future studies on comorbidity and treatment strategies. Her efforts highlight the need for heightened clinical awareness of atypical presentations in young patients, making her a valuable voice in advancing developmental psychopathology.
