Mapping the Brain: New Insights into Language-Based Alzheimer’s

Your Content Goes Here Your Content Goes Here Mapping the Brain: New Insights into Language-Based Alzheimer’s When we think of Alzheimer’s disease, memory loss is often the first symptom that comes to mind. However, for a subset of patients, the journey begins differently—with subtle, yet persistent, challenges in language. This specific presentation, known as logopenic primary progressive aphasia (LPA), is the focus of a new study recently published in the Journal of Alzheimer’s Disease by researchers at the Cleveland Clinic and the Cleveland Alzheimer’s Disease Research Center (CADRC).

CADRC Researchers find that Alzheimer’s Disease Can Be Reversed in Animal Models

For generations, the medical world has operated under a sobering assumption: once Alzheimer’s disease takes hold, the damage to the brain is permanent. Research has traditionally focused on building "roadblocks" to slow the disease down, rather than finding a way to turn the car around. However, a transformative new study led by Kalyani Chaubey, PhD, in the laboratory of CADRC co-Investigator…
