You can still watch @Channel4's #LoveLossAndDementia doc. Prof @cathmummery discusses the causes of dementia & how researching younger brains can help detect the earliest signs of the disease & Prof. @jonrohrer discusses new drug trails. bit.ly/3YaAyMy

Prodromal frontotemporal dementia can be tricky to identify with confidence, making the detection and study of early stages of illness especially difficult. New research diagnostic criteria for "MCBMI" have good accuracy @AlbertoBenussi @GENFI1 @allftd alzres.biomedcentral.com/art…
