Dr Rohrer's research has focused on the neuroimaging and neuropsychology of
frontotemporal dementia (FTD), particularly in relation to their
underlying genetic causes. Research in the field of FTD has led to the
publication of over 100 Pubmed-referenced papers and he has spoken at a
number of international conferences about the work. Since 2011 he has
co-ordinated the Genetic FTD Initiative, GENFI, a multicentre cohort
study of presymptomatic genetic FTD, and has been
the clinical lead for the International FTD GWAS Consortium. He has also
set up FTD UK , an annual scientific meeting of UK
researchers who work in the FTD field (running since 2011), and runs a
website dedicated to providing research updates to the general public
about FTD: FTD talk.
