The top-line results last September from Eisai’s Phase 3 trial of the anti-amyloid antibody lecanemab galvanized the field, but scientists said they needed to see the data before passing judgement.
This database is a repository of normal genetic variability, designed to be a tool for researchers who study neurodegenerative disease. It contains whole-exome sequencing results from nearly 500 ...
A potential treatment for Alzheimer’s disease relies on 40 Hz light or sound to entrain gamma rhythms in the brain. This intervention, pioneered by Li-Huei Tsai and colleagues at Massachusetts ...
