Neurodegeneration

Neurodegeneration

Improving brain health through collaboration and innovation

Deepening our understanding of brain and mind disorders through scientific discovery

Neurodegeneration Health Topics

Neurological disorders are the leading cause of disability and the second leading cause of death worldwide. We are dedicated to finding new ways to prevent, detect and treat these disorders to ultimately deliver real-world impact.

Aboriginal Ageing

We take a life-course approach to Aboriginal ageing and brain health that is focused on informing, educating and building the capacity of Aboriginal communities.

Alzheimer's disease

There is currently no cure for Alzheimer’s Disease but there is hope - our research is focused on finding better methods of prevention and treatment.

Dementia

Dementia and frailty are linked to loss of independence and entry into aged care, and have a substantial family, societal, and economic impact.

Frontotemporal dementia

We are focused on understanding how the brain changes with frontotemporal dementia, as well as the impact of the disease on patients and their families.

Mitochondrial disease

We hope to deepen our understanding of this complex disease in order to find more effective pathways to prevention and treatment.

Motor neurone disease

Motor neurone disease (MND) is a neurodegenerative disease that causes rapidly progressive muscle weakness.

NeuroHIV

We are exploring the impact of long-term HIV infection on the risk of developing difficulties with memory and concentration.

Parkinson's Disease

The goal of our research is to slow the progression of Parkinson’s disease, and ultimately, improve health outcomes for individuals living with Parkinson's.
