A collaboration between researchers from the Center for Healthy Brain Aging (CHeBA) at UNSW Sydney and the Australian Catholic University (ACU) has found that living in walkable, green, and well-connected neighborhoods—especially those with access to […]
Changes in how brain cells generate energy may drive the development of Alzheimer’s disease and influence how patients respond to therapy, according to a new study from Mayo Clinic researchers. The findings, published in the […]
What is the earliest spark that ignites the memory-robbing march of Alzheimer’s disease? Why do some people with Alzheimer’s-like changes in the brain never go on to develop dementia? These questions have bedeviled neuroscientists for […]
Researchers at the University of California, Irvine have identified a promising nonpharmaceutical treatment that rejuvenates aging brain cells and clears away the buildup of harmful proteins associated with Alzheimer’s disease.This article was originally published on […]
In a preclinical study, Cedars-Sinai investigators found that boosting angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) in key immune cells called microglia in the brain helped protect the brains of specially bred laboratory mice against Alzheimer’s disease. Their findings, […]
A recent study led by a team of researchers at The Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine examining aging mice has provided what is believed to be the first evidence that amyloid beta protein—small, sticky […]
More than 55 million people worldwide live with Alzheimer’s and related dementias (ADRD), placing a heavy burden on families and health care. Social isolation is a major—and preventable—risk factor, linked to faster cognitive decline and […]
Antonella Zanobetti was conducting groundbreaking research to examine links between exposure to environmental factors, such as pollution and heat, and deadly neurological and cardiovascular diseases. But three of her studies came to a halt with […]
