All participants are seen annually. In addition to a detailed neurological examination, participants will receive a standardized battery of neuropsychological tests and will undergo genetic testing. The investigators will provide standardized periodic longitudinal assessment of the research participants. Autopsies to establish neurohistopathological diagnoses in clinically well-characterized patients with dementia, patients with mild MCI, and cognitively normal elderly control subjects will also be conducted.
