跳到0分10秒你好,我叫尼克·福克斯(Nick Fox),我指导伦敦皇后广场(Queen Square)UCL神经病学研究所的痴呆研究中心。我想和您谈谈痴呆症。痴呆症是我们时代最紧迫的社会和健康问题,对个人和社会的个人造成了毁灭性的后果。痴呆症是多种疾病的伞,这些疾病会导致思维技能逐渐丧失。阿尔茨海默氏病是迄今为止最常见的原因,但痴呆症的痴呆症形式鲜为人知,会影响数千或数百万的人,但经常被认可。那么,我们如何能更好地理解痴呆症,如何提供迫切需要的护理和治疗方法?
跳到0分钟47秒On this four-week course you’ll learn about dementia from a new perspective with world leading experts sharing their knowledge and importantly patients and carers sharing their candid personal accounts to demonstrate the symptoms and understand the challenges of living with these four less common forms of dementia. These are familial Alzheimer’s disease behavioral variant frontotemporal dementia, dementia with Lewy bodies and posterior cortical atrophy. Research into these forms of dementia has the power to help those affected and their families and as we’ll show it can also provide unique insights into dementia in general. For example we’ll talk to professors Martin Rossor and John Hardy who carried out prize-winning work finding the very first gene that causes the rare familial form of Alzheimer’s disease.
