Behavioral variant of frontotemporal dementia

This study explores whether a simple music activity—tapping along to rhythms together—can improve social attention and feelings of closeness in people with frontotemporal dementia or Alzheimer's disease, and their caregivers. Eighty patient-caregiver pairs will participate in a c…

This study uses advanced MRI scans and genetic tests to track how neurodegenerative diseases like frontotemporal dementia and ALS spread across the brain's network. Researchers will follow 645 participants, including patients, family members, and healthy controls, for up to 2 yea…

This study looks at brain tissue and lab-grown nerve cells from people with schizophrenia, depression, bipolar disorder, frontotemporal dementia, and Alzheimer's. Researchers want to find out how problems with synapses—the connections between brain cells—differ in these condition…

This study aims to learn more about diseases that affect the brain, such as Parkinson's disease and different types of dementia. Researchers will follow 500 adults with symptoms of these conditions over time, using brain scans and genetic tests to see how the diseases progress. T…

This observational study looks at how brain inflammation contributes to frontotemporal lobar degeneration (FTLD), a group of disorders that cause dementia. Researchers will use advanced brain scans, blood tests, and spinal fluid analysis in 110 participants to find biomarkers tha…
