The MGH FTD Unit aims to develop better knowledge about and diagnosis and treatment of all forms of FTD and related focal dementia syndromes. The PPA Program aims to better understand and treat primary progressive aphasia syndromes using existing technologies (including speech therapy) and by developing new diagnostic and treatment technologies. The PCA program is a clinical-research partnership that offers a specialized cross-discipline approach to diagnosing and caring for individuals living with posterior cortical atrophy and their families.

Our research is generously funded by the National Institute on Aging and the Alzheimer’s Association, and the private donations of many individuals.
