The Neuropathology Core confirms the presence of AD, vascular, and other types of neurodegenerative pathology will is essential to achieve most accurate etiological diagnosis. The Core is central for distributing human tissues for basic research into the cause and treatment of neurodegeneration disorders. The Core also provide a source of DNA for genomic wide association studies.
