A combination of technological progress and a world-wide concerted effort currently leads to rapidly accumulating information about human biology at cellular resolution. This comprehensive understanding of how human cells develop in ontogeny, are distributed in anatomy, and collaborate in physiology and in pathology will provide a basis for entirely new diagnostic strategies. With this symposium, […]

Frontotemporal dementia (FTD) is a complex neurodegenerative disorder characterised by a large variety of genetic associations, underlying pathologies and clinical symptoms. As of today, there are no treatments available that have preventative and/or curative effects on the disease. Swedish FTD Initiative is a multidisciplinary consortium created in 2017 by the support of The Schörling Foundation, […]
