Special Episode: The Road To Diagnosis with The Algernon Project

Remember Me

Today's episode is brought to you by The Algernon Project.

The Algernon Project founders Ben and Keri Allen walk us through the long and hard fought journey of receiving a Frontotemporal Dementia (FTD) diagnosis for Keri's father, Mark. They explain how this heartbreaking experience of constant misdiagnosis motivated them to explore an algorithm to assist radiologists in spotting subtle brain atrophy.

As our season is coming to an end, we feel it's a beautiful thing to share how a young couple has taken their trauma experience and channeled their talents into healing and helping others. Take a listen and follow them on social media to follow along on their journey to raise awareness for FTD and eradicate misdiagnosis of FTD @algernonproject.
