Carolyn Yule

Associate Professor of Sociology, University of Guelph

Associate Professor of Sociology, University of Guelph Carolyn Yule's research uses a combination of quantitative and qualitative methods to examine how life course events and processes shape stability and change in criminal behaviour. She also investigates how criminal court decisions shape the lives of criminal justice involved individuals.

PhD researcher, Neuropathology of Alzheimer's, Karolinska Institutet Charlotte is a PhD student at Karolinska Institutet since 2017. Her research is focusing on the clinical, genetic and neuropathological nature of familial Alzheimer’s disease. She is also a member of the Caroline Graff Group of translational genetics of neurodegenerative diseases, which researches inherited forms of dementia, alongside other inherited neurodegenerative conditions. Charlotte is organizing and assessing participants in the Swedish Familial Alzheimer Disease study, which is a longitudinal prospective observational study that has been ongoing at Karolinska Institutet since the 1990´s. Charlotte gained her degree in medicine in 2011 at Lund University and finished her specialization in geriatrics in 2018. She is currently working as a geriatrician at Karolinska University Hospital, Sweden.

Caroline Graff

Professor of Genetic Dementia Research, Karolinska Institutet

Professor of Genetic Dementia Research, Karolinska Institutet Caroline Graff was appointed Professor of Genetic Dementia Research at Karolinska Institutet in 2011. Caroline Graff gained her degree in medicine in 1992 at Uppsala University before becoming PhD in clinical genetics in 1997. Between 1997 and 2001 she did her postdoc in mitochondrial biology at Karolinska Institutet. From 2002 to 2006 she carried out research at the then Neurotec department at KI. In 2007 she became an associate professor at KI where, during the period 2007-2009, she worked as a specialist in clinical genetics at Karolinska University Hospital. From 2009 to 2010 she worked as a university lecturer in genetic dementia research at KI combined with a post as a clinical specialist at Karolinska University Hospital, Huddinge. She is a founding member of Swedish Frontotemporal dementia Initiative, which is a network for researchers clinicians, patients and carers, and since 2011 she has been the director of the Brain Bank at Karolinska Institutet. Caroline Graffs research aims to find genetic markers for neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer's FTD, ALS and Parkinson's. It should increase knowledge of individual genetic risk factors for these diseases, knowledge which in turn could be applied to clinical practice in the form of genetic and preventive counselling. Around 55 million people globally suffer from dementia, where Alzheimer's is the most common and the number is feared to increase threefold up until 2050.
