Explore a group of disorders caused by progressive nerve cell loss in the brain’s frontal lobes and temporal lobes. As the neurons die the lobes of the brain atrophy and begin to affect personality, behavior, language, emotions, planning, prioritizing, and movement. Discuss treatment and management as well.

This session is also available in a 60-minute format with a deeper exploration of these disorders and their impact on the brain.
