Following completion of a PhD at Oxford University and post-doctoral studies at Harvard Medical School, Prof Isaacs established his own group at UCL. As part of this UK DRI research programme, Adrian is investigating the molecular and cellular mechanisms that lead to FTD and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis.
