  • In this Dementia Researcher Podcast episode, Dr Aitana Sogorb Esteve hosts a discussion with Dr Charlie Arber and Sam Crawford from University College London, discussing their work on familial British dementia (FBD), a rare form of dementia affecting only a handful of families. The discussion explores the latest findings from human stem cell models that are helping researchers understand FBD’s unique genetic and pathological features, and how that can inform a wider understanding of familial Alzheimer’s Disease. Topics covered include: - Genetic causes and symptoms of familial British dementia - Use of stem cell models, particularly iPSCs, to study FBD in the lab - Potential biomarkers and implications for therapeutic research - How funding from the Race Against Dementia Ignition Fund is supporting advancements in rare dementia research -- Full biographies on all our guests and a transcript can be found on our website: https://www.dementiaresearcher.nihr.ac.uk Find out more at Race Against Dementia: https://www.raceagainstdementia.com/ -- Like what you see?
