The institute's lead researchers, Michael Mullan and Fiona Crawford, were members of a team of scientists who discovered the first genetic errors causing Alzheimer's disease in 1991 in the APP gene in early onset familial cases. Mullan and Crawford also discovered the Swedish mutation which has been incorporated into transgenic mice which are widely used to understand the disease and test new treatments. More information...
