New study reveals how aniracetam works differently than failed Alzheimer's drugs Read the full study here Alzheimer's research has hit wall after wall. By 2018, nine different drugs failed in major clinical trials. But new research suggests we've been looking at the problem backwards.
New research indicates 42% of adults over 55 may develop dementia, but OHSU researcher Dr. Allison Lindauer shares practical prevention strategies including hearing protection, exercise, and social engagement.
New research reveals aerobic exercise reduces Alzheimer's disease markers by up to 76% and improves brain health, suggesting a promising preventive approach against the neurodegenerative disorder.
A study explores how green iron oxide nanoparticles, created using curcumin from turmeric, could help prevent the protein aggregation that leads to Alzheimer's disease.
Learn the research-backed morning habits that can lower your dementia risk, starting with quality sleep and including exercise, nutrition, hydration and social connection.
Bristol University's Isambard-AI supercomputer uses artificial intelligence to accelerate drug discovery and vaccine development, targeting diseases including Alzheimer's, heart disease, and cancer.
New research reveals Camembert cheese contains myristate compounds that boost brain proteins and could help prevent cognitive decline, offering hope for Alzheimer's prevention through diet.
Recent research from Finland, UMass, and UCSF demonstrates that targeted lifestyle interventions can significantly reduce dementia risk and even reverse some cognitive decline in Alzheimer's patients.
Research shows lactylation of amyloid precursor protein reduces plaque formation and preserves memory in mice with Alzheimer's disease, pointing to potential new treatment approaches.
A deep dive into how scientific misconduct and fraudulent research has impacted Alzheimer's treatment development, affecting millions of patients and their families.
New predictive tool called the Florey Dementia Index can forecast the onset of Alzheimer's symptoms years in advance, helping patients and doctors plan better care.
Promising research demonstrates how personalized transcranial magnetic stimulation targeting the brain's Default Mode Network could significantly slow Alzheimer's progression, with no serious side effects.
PREVENTION
Learn the practical steps to reduce your Alzheimer's risk, from sleep quality to social connections, based on insights from Alzheimer's Research UK's chief medical officer.
PREVENTION
Research shows vitamin D deficiency significantly increases dementia risk. Learn how winter affects your brain health and steps to maintain healthy vitamin D levels.
PREVENTION
Glyphosate exposure leads to persistent brain inflammation and increased Alzheimer's disease markers, with effects lasting long after exposure ends.
PREVENTION
New research shows Alzheimer's disease progresses over decades, with brain changes starting years before symptoms appear. Learn about the updated stages and what they mean for patients and families.
PREVENTION
Resistance training reduces white matter damage in the brain, with stronger benefits for women - potentially opening new paths for preventing cognitive decline.
TREATMENT
Research shows specific spine movements can increase cerebral spinal fluid flow by 15x, suggesting Alzheimer's may be linked to reduced movement rather than just brain chemistry.
DISCOVERY
A new predictive tool helps doctors and patients forecast the onset of mild cognitive impairment and Alzheimer's disease, enabling better planning for care and treatment.
DISCOVERY
New research reveals Alzheimer's disease and normal aging affect brain networks differently, with Alzheimer's causing widespread disruption beyond just memory regions - challenging our focus on amyloid plaques.
PHARMA
Alzheimer's drug Xanamem shows promise in clinical trials by targeting brain cortisol levels, with researchers calling it an "exercise in a pill" that could halt disease progression.
TREATMENT
A new study demonstrates that a personalized, multi-modal treatment approach including ketogenic diet, exercise, and targeted supplementation can improve cognitive scores in patients with memory decline.
PREVENTION
New blood-based tests could revolutionize Alzheimer's detection in primary care settings, with AI tools and machine learning algorithms enhancing diagnostic accuracy.
DISCOVERY
Research reveals molecular connections between type 2 diabetes and Alzheimer's disease, showing how diabetes may influence brain protein changes linked to cognitive decline.
