Department Description
The Memory and Aging Center (MAC) is a clinical research unit
within the UCSF Department of Neurology that investigates the
clinical (neurological, cognitive, behavioral, neuroanatomic)
characteristics of various neurodegenerative diseases. The Primary
Investigator's (PI) research within the MAC focuses on the
decision-making processes in patients with frontotemporal dementia
(FTD), Alzheimer's Disease (AD), primary progressive aphasia (PPA),
and other neurodegenerative disorders.
Our laboratory is under the scientific direction of Dr. Gil
Rabinovici, MD and Dr. Renaud La Joie, PhD. Data Analysts are
directly supervised and mentored by Dr. Daniel Schonhaut, PhD and
Dr. La Joie. The lab's mission is to advance the understanding of
heterogeneous neurodegenerative diseases using novel molecular
imaging tools and other biomarkers, with the goal of developing
personalized care and tailored treatments for people with cognitive
impairment and dementia. We are housed within the UCSF Memory and
Aging Center (MAC) in the Department of Neurology. Along with
conducting our own research program, we serve as the PET Imaging
Core for the larger MAC community and for several ongoing,
multi-site research studies and clinical trials. The MAC is
directed by Dr. Bruce Miller and includes specialists from a wide
variety of disciplines-including neurology, neuropsychology,
geriatrics, geropsychiatry, pharmacy, nursing, social work, and
speech pathology-who work together to evaluate patients, design
care and treatment plans, refer patients for enrollment in research
and clinical trials, and foster community engagement and equitable
access to clinical care and research involvement. MAC investigators
evaluate and care for people with declining memory and cognitive
capabilities due to a wide spectrum of neurodegenerative diseases
associated with aging, including Alzheimer's disease,
frontotemporal dementia, progressive supranuclear palsy,
corticobasal syndrome, rapidly progressive dementia, dementia with
Lewy bodies, and Huntington's disease.
