Serious brain diseases such as Alzheimer's and Parkinson's are usually diagnosed too late for optimal benefit from available drug and non-drug treatments.

The project is headed by Aarhus University and the Danish hospital Rigshospitalet and is supported by the Innovation Fund Denmark.| EurekAlert!
