[CNN Membership Roster] [CNN Meeting Rosters]

The Clinical Neuroscience and Neurodegeneration [CNN] Study Section addresses chronic and neurodegenerative diseases. Emphasis is on the neural substrate, functional consequences and the development of therapeutic strategies for chronic/neurodegenerative disorders. This Study Section primarily considers patient-oriented research but also clinically oriented research using animal models. Specific areas covered by CNN:

• Alzheimer’s disease and other dementias.
• Parkinson’s disease and other movement disorders (Huntington’s, Dystonias, Ataxias).
• Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS) and related motor neuron disorders.
• Neuroimaging, functional, biochemical,  and neuropathological studies to assess the onset, progression, treatment, and development of biomarkers for brain disorders.
• Changes in learning, memory, language, attention, behavior, and other functional domains that are consequences of disease.
• Cellular, anatomical, and systems-based studies of changes in the neural substrate and function of brain in response to disease.
