Abstract: The DRONE-project (Drug Repurposing fOr Neurological disEases) uses data from nationwide registries to identify repurposing candidates for treatment of Parkinson’s, ALS, MS, and Alzheimer’s disease. Recently, the project has received updated data with diagnostic codes from primary care, which will make it possible to also describe symptoms and signs during the prodromal phase of the diseases. In this seminar, Julia Romanowska, Julia Tuominen, and Magne Haugland Solheim will give some updates on recent results and plans.
