General objective :

The overall aim of this project is to phenotype relevant memory and cognition disorders associated with ageing in a multi-dimensional way (biological, morphological, pathophysiological and clinical) in order to propose innovative therapeutics based on these categorizations. BRAIN has long-standing scientific expertise and unique translational capabilities in the following disease groups characterized by, or involving, a disorder of memory and other cognitive dimensions : degenerative brain diseases of the elderly (Alzheimer's disease -AD, other dementias, Parkinson's disease -PD and associated disorders; other memory and cognitive impairments (sequelae of brain lesions; psychiatric conditions, obesity, attentional deficits; stress; sleep disorders; chronic fatigue; depression and other mood disorders…).
