7th Human Amyloid Imaging (HAI)

Conference - Miami Beach, United States

The 7th Human Amyloid Imaging meeting will take place in Miami, Florida on January 16-18, 2013. The co-conveners for the meeting will again be Keith A. Johnson (Massachusetts General Hospital/Harvard Medical School), Bill Klunk and Chet Mathis (University of Pittsburgh) and Bill Jagust (University of California, Berkeley).

At HAI 2013 we will continue to emphasize ample lively discussion of core controversies such as: what does the presence of brain amyloid mean, how should it be measured, how does it change, and what does it portend? Our discussions will primarily spring from brief presentations by active investigators who will report unpublished, cutting-edge research in human imaging of amyloid-beta and/or other biomarkers that pertain to Alzheimer's-related disease. To assemble at HAI only the most recent, important work, abstract submissions will be again accepted and peer-reviewed less than two months prior to the meeting.

Research reports are complemented at HAI by Keynote presentations that are intended to cross disciplines and provide perspective from neuropathology, neurochemistry, psychology, neurology, molecular imaging, clinical trials and biomarker research. In 2013, we are pleased to welcome two such presentations from Charles Duyckaerts (Hopital de la Salpetriere) and Karl Herrup (Rutgers University). In addition to these, we will continue our lectures on basic methods in amyloid PET.
