Dr. Bruce Miller is the director of the UCSF Memory and Aging Center and holds the A.W. & Mary Margaret Clausen Distinguished Chair. His interest in frontotemporal dementia (FTD) started when he was a neurobehavioral fellow and saw how destructive this disease is to the people who have it and those around them. The social, psychological and philosophical questions raised by this disease are profound. By learning more about FTD, we can better help those affected by it.
