   Proposal Description:
   <textarea name="description" rows="12" cols="85" wrap="virtual" readonly>1. The goal of the proposed research project is to assess for sex differences   in the onset and trajectory of cognitive decline in neurodegenerative             conditions including Alzheimer's disease, Lewy Body Dementia and Parkinson's      disease. This project will help inform clinical care in an understudied           research area.                                                                    2. Study Objective                                                                Hypothesis: There are significant differences in cognitive performance between    women and men with neurodegenerative conditions including Alzheimers disease,     Lewy Body Dementia and Parkinsons disease.                                        Aim: Characterize the cognitive phenotype in neurodegenerative conditions         including Alzheimers disease, Lewy Body Dementia and Parkinsons disease in        female patients versus male patients. </textarea>
