In Alzheimer's disease, the leading cause of dementia, the brain's immune defenders, microglia, act as both protectors and attackers, determining how the disease progresses. Researchers at...
Neurodegenerative diseases (NDs), such as Alzheimer's disease (AD), Parkinson's disease (PD), amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), and multiple sclerosis (MS), represent a growing global health burden, especially...
Scientists have developed a fast, non-invasive blood test that can detect Parkinson's disease before the tremor begins. By measuring RNA fragments that reflect brain pathology, this...
MIT engineers have devised a new method of delivering specific drugs at high doses that are less painful, by injecting them as suspensions of small crystals....
