In this Q&A, Dr Andy Liu, Associate Professor of Neurology at Duke University School of Medicine, discusses his presentation on the clinical use of lecanemab in Alzheimer’s disease. Drawing on real-world experience and findings from the 2022 CLARITY AD study, Dr Liu explores the treatment’s benefits, challenges in daily practice and the importance of patient-centred care in this evolving therapeutic landscape.
Watch a leading expert discuss the key signs and symptoms of Friedreich ataxia and how to avoid diagnostic delays.
Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is characterized by the degeneration of both upper and lower motor neurons, which ultimately leads to muscle weakness, atrophy, spasticity and contractures.1 ALS typically manifests in the 50–60 years age range, although familial cases may present in ...
Brain Awareness Week, taking place from March 10-16, 2025, is a global campaign dedicated to fostering public enthusiasm and support for brain science, organised by the Dana Foundation. Each March, participants worldwide organize imaginative activities that highlight the wonders of the brain and the profound impact of neuroscience on our daily lives.
Watch this short video animation to learn how genetic mutations in patients with Friedreich ataxia (FA) translate into clinical symptoms.
Huntington’s disease (HD) is a neurodegenerative disease inherited in an autosomal dominant manner. It is caused by an expansion of cytosine, adenine, guanine (CAG) repeats within the huntingtin (HTT) gene, which is located on chromosome 4. This pathological expansion of ...
In this episode, we’re joined by Bradley Love, Professor of Cognitive and Decision Sciences at UCL, ELLIS fellow, and creator of BrainGPT. We discuss how this large language model is poised to assist researchers in advancing their work.
A powerful new illustrated book, What Parkinson’s Feels Like, has been released to help build empathy and raise awareness about the lived experience of Parkinson’s disease.
