The CIEN Foundation-managed Alzheimer Project Research Unit
(IUPA, for its acronym in Spanish) has a strong multidisciplinary
approach characterized by the continued collaboration between its
five departments: three mostly devoted to basic research
(Neuropathology, Neuroimaging and Molecular Genetics, previously
called Laboratory) and two focused on the clinic (Neurology and
Neuropsychology). Among its objectives are the following: varying
out research projects in the field of neurodegenerative diseases,
especially in Alzheimer's disease, and the periodic evaluation
and monitoring of CAFRS patients.
