Fronto-parietal contributions to episodic retrieval – evidence from neurodegenerative disorders
Published 2019-06-01Converging evidence suggests a critical role for the parietal cortices in episodic memory retrieval. Here, we examined episodic memory performance in Corticobasal Syndrome (CBS), a rare neurodegenerative disorder presenting ...Open AccessArticle -
Visuospatial dysfunction in Alzheimer’s disease and behavioural variant frontotemporal dementia
Published 2019-09-18OBJECTIVES: Approximately 30% of Alzheimer’s disease (AD) patients are misdiagnosed due to overlapping and evolving clinical features. In particular, the distinction of AD from behavioural variant frontotemporal dementia ...Open AccessArticle
