Research
Extensive research into dementia is ongoing. We contribute to this field at both national and international levels. Our research focuses on three main areas:
- improving diagnostics
- gaining a better understanding of the mechanisms behind the diseases
- creating better treatment options for people with dementia.
Our research is conducted in collaboration with the Clinical Memory Research Unit at Lund University.
BioFINDER study
The BioFINDER study is a research project conducted in collaboration with Lund University. It is one of the largest studies globally in its field and comprises several sub-studies.
These studies are based on extensive research material comprising more than 1,000 individuals. The cohort includes both patients with memory disorders and healthy participants who are followed over an extended period.
