Proactive Approaches to Health for Asymptomatic Adults at Risk for Neurodegenerative Conditions
The aim of this study is to assess the needs of asymptomatic adults at-risk to carry a pathogenic mutation associated with Ataxia conditions. This study also looks at other neurodegenerative conditions such as Huntington’s, ALS, and FTD. We hope identifying these needs can help us to to facilitate better care for this population in the future through an at-risk clinical center
