Massive DNA hunt launched to crack code of brain diseases

NCT ID NCT02014246

Summary

This study aims to find the genetic causes of dementia and movement disorders by analyzing DNA from thousands of people. Researchers are enrolling patients with these conditions, their family members, and healthy volunteers to provide blood or saliva samples. The goal is to identify specific genes involved, which could lead to better understanding and future treatments, but this study itself does not provide treatment.
