"While our research doesn't prove that a healthy diet resulted in fewer brain deposits of amyloid plaques, also known as an indicator of Alzheimer's disease, we know there is a relationship and ...

If deep brain stimulation (DBS) can help people with Parkinson’s disease walk and speak again, could it help people with Alzheimer’s disease, too? It’s a natural question, and one that ...

it could potentially be adapted not just for Alzheimer’s, but also for other conditions where disease processes are patchy or localized, like brain tumors, multiple sclerosis or other ...

The journey of watching someone you love struggle with Alzheimer’s disease can feel like a slow heartbreak. This progressive brain condition gradually erases precious memories, changes ...

Researchers at Northwestern University have made a breakthrough in identifying a way for Alzheimer's disease to be treated far more effectively in the future – using the brain's own immune cells.

The findings could reshape the future of Alzheimer’s treatments, shifting the focus from simply removing plaques to harnessing the brain’s natural defenses. Earlier attempts at an Alzheimer ...
