Heading to MND Research #alsmndsymp in Basel to speak at the joint FTD-ALS session. Looking forward to an exciting meeting. We are looking for a new research assistant to co-ordinate the GENFI study at UCL - if you are interested come and talk to the team. #endftd

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 Alberto Benussi GENFI ALLFTD alzres.biomedcentral.com/articles/10.11…

The DDisparitiesPIA & Frontotemporal Dementia and Related Disorders PIA are collaborating together for a webinar titled "Considering diversity and disparity in frontotemporal dementias: Clinical and epidemiological implications". 📅February 29, 10 am CT. Stay tuned!

Frontotemporal #dementia is a rare disease that needs a global response. Rhian Convery (UCL Brain Sciences) used UCL Global Engagement Funds to set up a much needed research site in Jakarta, as part of GENFI: bit.ly/3WsOTU7

Phoebe Foster and I had the pleasure of hosting the first annual GENFI Participant Spring Webinar 💻 Big thanks to our speakers and most importantly to all participants who joined & continue to participate in the GENFI study as without you this research wouldn’t be possible ☺️

Today the GENFI meeting is being held in Hospital Clínic with the aim to continue moving forward the field of genetic Frontotemporal Dementia! Thanks Eli Lilly and Company Bluefield Project Alector 🧠 We’re ready to enjoy the upcoming scientific discussions! Raquel Sánchez-Valle Sergi Borrego

And the fabulous core GENFI team
