Tau Diagnostics and Clinical Studies

This short editorial provides our point of view of the first EURO TAU meeting focusing on tau diagnostics and clinical studies. We cover postmortem analyses toward the identification of new biomarkers, tau imaging as a diagnostic biomarker, cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) sampling with emphasis on tau fragments, blood tests and genetic evaluations for sporadic cases, treatment aspects, drug development and points for future developments toward disease modification of devastating tauopathies.
