Description: A brain bank and laboratory focused on memory and motor disorders. Brains are sent to the laboratory for diagnosis and research for the State of Florida Alzheimer Disease Initiative and for the Society for Progressive Supranuclear Palsy. As part of this brain banking function, fixed and frozen brain samples are obtained at autopsy and sent to the laboratory for diagnostic evaluation and for various types of research studies. The major types of analyses performed on the brain samples include neuro-histology, immunohistochemistry, confocal microscopy, electron microscopy and image analysis, as well as immunoassays. The latter are based upon Western blotting and enzyme linked immunoassays. The laboratory has a specific interest in the interface between normal aging and Alzheimer's disease, as well as in non-Alzheimer's degenerative disorders such as Lewy body dementia, corticobasal degeneration, progressive supranuclear palsy and frontotemporal dementia. The primary focus of research on aging is neuropathologic characterization of brains of individuals who had been prospectively and longitudinally evaluated during life. These studies aim to determine differences in a range of biologic parameters in brains of people with normal cognitive, mild cognitive impairment and dementia. Their focus on Parkinson's disease is to identify preclinical Parkinson's disease in order to develop means for early diagnosis.
