Can Scientists Slow Down Brain Disorders?


Listen Later

Neurodegenerative diseases, like Alzheimer’s disease and Parkinson’s disease, are conditions that lead to a gradual, cumulative loss of neural activity in the brain. There are currently no cures for these conditions, and current care regimens focus on managing the symptoms of these diseases. In this episode, sponsored by AbbVie, we look at the impact of neurological conditions on patients and their families, and the persistence of the scientists and researchers who are exploring new clinical approaches that could potentially change the way these neurological conditions are treated. Not intended for UK audiences.
