Neurogenetics

Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, hereditary forms of migraine.

Neurogenetics examines the occurrence of risk mutations or predispositions for the most common neurodegenerative diseases, including Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, and hereditary forms of migraine. Less severe but more common gene mutations do not directly cause the disease but can influence the age of onset, individual development, and progression of the disease. Especially in the case of dementia, genetics enables precise diagnosis and increases the success of potential treatment.
