Tau Biomarkers in Late-onset Psychosis (LOP)
Sponsor: Jeremy Koppel
Summary
Hallucinations or delusions that occur for the first time in older people with no acute medical problems or mood symptoms may be related to impending dementia. This study aims to confirm this hypothesis using novel blood biomarkers and Positron Emission Tomography (PET) imaging tracers, as well as non-invasive testing.
