Alzheimer’s disease
Understanding the link between hormone processes and Alzheimer’s
Researchers at the University of Bristol are investigating the link between the hormone system controlling brain blood flow and the progression of Alzheimer’s disease
Shedding light on memory loss in Alzheimer’s
Researchers at the University of Edinburgh are investigating how memory loss happens in Alzheimer’s disease
Using brain scans to investigate changes in the brain over time
Prof Nick Fox and Prof Jon Schott are studying brain scans to investigate changes in the brain over time in a longitudinal amyloid-PET/MRI study of the 1946 birth cohort.
When will there be a blood test for Alzheimer’s?
A blood test, however, would be a simple, cost-effective, relatively non-invasive way to give key insights about brain changes in Alzheimer’s disease.
Just below the surface of the brain
Researchers at University College London seek to identify changes just under the surface of the brain that could indicate the early stages of Alzheimer’s disease
Assessing the biological consequences of a potential Alzheimer’s treatment
Researchers at the University of Southampton are studying the effects of blocking an overactive protein that contributes to the development of Alzheimer’s disease
Identifying targets to tackle brain inflammation
Researchers at King’s Collage London are investigating potential drugs to stop damaging inflammation in brain cells.
Can our genetics predict our risk of Alzheimer’s disease?
Researchers in Edinburgh are looking into how our genetics predicts our risk of Alzheimer’s disease
Looking into head injury and dementia
Research at Imperial College London is exploring the link between head injury and dementia
Researching the link between Alzheimer’s disease and diabetes
Researchers in Aberdeen are exploring the link between diabetes and Alzheimer’s disease
