When doctors suspect Alzheimer's, they can order a blood test to learn whether a patient's brain contains the sticky amyloid plaques that are a hallmark of the disease. But the results of that test ...
A growing body of research links insulin resistance, a hallmark of diabetes, to the onset of Alzheimer’s disease. A blood test for insulin resistance can help identify people with early Alzheimer’s ...
Scientists have reversed severe memory loss in two mouse models of Alzheimer’s by restoring the brain’s energy supply. Late-stage mice showed brain tissue repairing itself once fuel balance returned, ...
We partnered with the Oscar Mike Foundation to explore how our wearable technology can help people who struggle with memory loss and traumatic brain injuries.
During the quiet hours of sleep, your brain is hard at work. It sends out tiny electrical signals that ripple across networks deep in your mind. For years, scientists knew these patterns told stories ...
A simple EEG scan can reveal hidden memory problems in just three minutes, giving doctors a powerful new tool to detect dementia earlier and more accurately. Study: A passive and objective measure of ...
A new study in mice suggests that memory problems in Alzheimer’s disease may stem from a breakdown in how the brain replays recent experiences during periods of rest. The research was carried out by s ...
A long-term study of older adults with moderate hearing loss found that hearing aids did not lead to better performance on ...
A massive international brain study has revealed that memory decline with age isn’t driven by a single brain region or gene, but by widespread structural changes across the brain that build up over ...
