Study Group of CJD (NEUROCJD)

 

This website includes information from two projects funded by the European Commission. The EUROCJD project started in 1993 and compares data from national registries in Australia, Austria, Canada, France, Germany, Italy, the Netherlands, Slovakia, Spain, Switzerland and the UK. The NEUROCJD project started in 1998 after the European Union Council recommended that epidemiological surveillance of CJD should be extended to all member states. The member states involved in this project are Belgium, Denmark, Finland, Greece, Iceland, Ireland, Israel, Norway and Portugal. Both projects are co-ordinated from the National CJD Surveillance Unit based in Edinburgh.

This site is split into two and you may choose whether to look at EUROCJD or NEUROCJD by clicking below:
