Join us for another episode of the ISTAART Relay Podcast brought to you by Dementia Researcher. We’re releasing one of these shows each week in the build up to the AAIC, which this year starts on the 28th July. In this episode, Dr Diana Karamacoska takes over the hot seat to interview Dr Keir Yong, a Senior Research Fellow at University College London, about the intricacies of Atypical Alzheimer's Disease, and the work of the Atypical Alzheimer's Disease PIA. Discover how posterior cortical atrophy (PCA), a less common variant of Alzheimer’s, impacts patients' lives and the innovative research aiming to improve diagnosis and treatment. Get insights into the diagnostic challenges, the role of biomarkers, and the essential interdisciplinary collaborations driving advancements in this field. Don't miss this deep dive into Keir’s work, hot topics in the field, and how their PIA is making a difference. -- The Alzheimer’s Association International Society to Advance Alzheimer’s Research and Treatment (ISTAART)
