Clinical perspectives in neuropsychology

A webinar by Alexia Candal-Zürcher, Inselspital Bern
When biology and cognition no longer tell the same story, what is the role of neuropsychology?
Using the case of a cognitively unimpaired, amyloid-positive individual, will explore the implication that biomarker-defined Alzheimer's disease raises for neuropsychologists. Drawing on recent advances in detecting subtle cognitive decline, cognitive phenotyping, and emerging assessment approaches, the aim is not to provide definitive answers, but to stimulate discussion on the evolving role of neuropsychology as Alzheimer's disease is diagnosed progressively earlier in its biological course.
The webinar is hosted by Jan Roloff (Siloah) and offers a platform for shared learning and discussion, enabling participants to exchange insights and experiences.
