Cure MAPT FTD
@CureMaptFtd
We raise awareness of the MAPT genetic mutation causing FTD, assist a global network of MAPT families, and advocate for trials that will lead to a cure
When a stranger recognized signs of dementia that doctors missed, Linde Jacobs’ family finally got answers. After losing her mom to genetic FTD, Linde turned her grief into advocacy, working to raise awareness, support research, and ensure others don’t face the same…
Many who have heard my story, are profoundly impacted by the letter I received from an inmate being the first to acknowledge my mom’s dementia, before any physician. After 7 years, I was finally able to give the “Angie” in the letter, the proper thanks. m.youtube.com/watch?v=cAExIi…
The Tau Global 2025 Lived Experience Panel, featuring Paul, Beth & Linde (living with PSP, CBD & FTD family history), deeply moved 500+ researchers. “It touched my heart,” said Dr. Min, a CurePSP grantee. It was a powerful connection that we’ll keep fostering. ⭐
Thank you @CurePSP for all that you do to support the families of those devastated by PSP and CBS. Your fight for answers to tauopathies will surely get us to the finish line!
Happy May! It’s CurePSP Awareness Month 🌟 Stay tuned for inspiring stories, vital research updates, ways to advocate and moments to connect as we turn hope into progress together. We look forward to sharing more. ❤️ Click here to learn more: psp.org/month-of-aware…
We are so lucky to be apart of Richard’s legacy….He lives on in the work he continues to fund and will be instrumental in the cures that are found for Tauopathies. Thank you @RCFNeuro for continuing Richard’s work!
This #PSPAwarenessMonth, we remember our founder Richard Rainwater, who was driven by his experience with #PSP to expand his philanthropic efforts to include research into primary tauopathies. Explore his story: bit.ly/42F57w8

Thank you @jsirven for giving the time and space for this incredibly meaningful conversation and for your investment into telling the patient story!
Had an amazing time joining @DrNeuroChic for an interview about the science behind genetic form of FTD. Always amazing to learn further about the work being done in the research labs and how hard our futures are being fought for by individuals like Dr Melissa Murray and her team.

Amazing to see the incredible work of @bess_frost being awarded a Rainwater Prize. Someone so deserving of the highest accolades for her work in neurodegenerationd, but also as a person whose heart is truly vested in making a difference. Thank you @RCFNeuro!
It’s an honor to be awarded the @RCFNeuro 2025 Innovative Early-Career Scientist award! My team and I are excited to continue pushing the envelope to unravel mechanisms underlying tau toxicity and to translate our discoveries into therapeutic strategies to combat tauopathies.
An incredible launch year for @CureMAPTFTD! We have accomplished so much in 1 year, and are rolling into a new year with even larger plans in sight! Can’t wait to see all that 2025 brings to this organization! canva.com/design/DAGZ8K8…
