   Proposal Description:
   The research aims at describing the longitudinal evolution of cognitive markers in early-onset Alzheimer disease (EOAD) as opposed to typical late-onset Alzheimer disease (LOAD).                                                       Using latent class analysis, as Scheltens et al. (JNNP 2015), we will identify cognitive subtypes (memory, language, visuospatial and behavioural-executive variants) and closely examine their rate of decline in each cognitive domain.
