Understanding the genetic forms of frontotemporal dementia (FTD) - The FLAG study
About this research
Professor Peter Nestor is running a research project that aims to better understand the genetic forms of frontotemporal dementia (such as those due to the C9ORF72, progranulin or tau genes) by studying the relatives of affected individuals.
