Grant Activity:
From dreams to delirium and dementia: Cognitive fluctuations as a window into novel biomarkers and therapeutic targets for neurodegeneration
Purpose:
Lewy body dementias are characterized by marked swings in attention and arousal known as cognitive fluctuations. We aim to show that disturbances in the biology maintaining the normal balance between wakefulness and sleep underlie this core symptom and use this to identify new disease biomarkers and novel therapeutic targets of Lewy body disease. We apply this to recruit the first prodromal cohort of delirium-onset Lewy body dementia and to improve prediction and treatment of delirium generally.
