ARUK 2021
Alzheimer’s Disease

Tom Veale, PhD Student, UCL Queen Square Institute of Neurology, London, UK, shares interesting updates in the field of neuroimaging, in particular related to the superficial white matter (SWM). SWM has been largely overlooked, but a better understanding of the SWM is essential for a better understanding of the brain network and its relation to several pathologies, including Alzheimer’s disease. This interview took place during the Alzheimer’s Research UK (ARUK) Conference 2021.
