Alzheimer disease and biomarkers

Evaluating blood- and CSF-based biomarkers and understanding when biomarker results agree, or disagree, with established measures of Alzheimer disease pathology.

Rapidly progressive dementia

Improving recognition of rapidly progressive neurodegenerative syndromes and identifying clinical, imaging, and laboratory features that sharpen the differential diagnosis.

Prion disease

Studying diagnostic mimics and the real-world performance of tests used to distinguish prion disease from other causes of cognitive decline.
