ClinConnect Summary

The TARGET-NEURO study is a research project that aims to understand the experiences and outcomes of patients living with chronic neurological diseases, including Alzheimer's disease, mild cognitive impairment, Parkinson's disease, and multiple sclerosis. By gathering information from these patients, the study hopes to better understand how these conditions affect daily life and overall health.

To participate, individuals must be adults aged 60 and older with a diagnosis of one of the listed conditions. They will need to provide consent to take part in the study, and in some cases, their care partners may also be invited to participate in surveys. Participants can expect to share their experiences over a period of time, helping researchers gain valuable insights into living with these diseases. It’s important to note that the study is not yet recruiting participants, so interested individuals will need to wait for further announcements.
