Rosa Rademakers, Ph.D.

Research Program Award (R35)

Dr. Rademaker’s research has previously led to the discovery of genetic factors that cause or modify the clinical presentation of FTD. She aims to build on these accomplishments to find additional genetic causes and modifiers of FTD, and to study their functions and contributions to disease pathogenesis. This research has the potential to inform disease diagnosis, inclusion criteria for clinical studies, genetic counseling guidance, and translation to targeted treatments.
