Kenneth Kosik will discuss international research that meshes clinical experience with molecular biology and neurogenetics. This work focuses on the largest kindred of familial Alzheimer’s disease in the world and is the basis of a trial for a prevent drug administered before the onset of dementia symptoms. The research team has sequenced additional cases with early-onset dementia and uncovered numerous novel mutations. The close relationship of the researchers and families has created a strong compassionate element to the project.
