A big thank you to Morden Station for backing PSP & CBD Awareness Week for the second year running!

And to Amanda for contacting them!

New research! Why do people with dementia have difficulty reacting to unexpected events? Here we demonstrate that the ‘multiple demand’ network for general intelligence co-ordinates the response of sensory brain regions when the environment changes: dx.doi.org/10.1523/JNEURO…

It is a real privilege to have been awarded this prestigious award for our publication on synaptic health in people with primary tauopathies. With many thanks to our participants, ARUK, Jean Corsan Foundation, my supervisors, colleagues, and funders. Association of British Neurologists Cambridge FTD

In patients with FTLD, Adams et al. quantify GABAergic impairment and its restoration with dynamic causal modelling of a double-blind placebo-controlled crossover pharmaco-MEG study. bit.ly/2V0PnDN

Congratulations Maura; great colleague and team member :)

Clinical Research Fellow? SpR or CMT Neurology or Psychiatry.

Come and join the fantastic team Cambridge FTD Cambridge University for dementia research - a really exciting program of MEG and 7TMRI linked to experimental treatment of FTD and PSP !
