Neurovascular coupling in cerebral hypoperfusion

The University of Manchester Faculty of Biology, Medicine and Health

There are almost a million people living with dementia in the UK. Most of these cases comprise Alzheimer’s Disease (AD), vascular dementia (VaD) or, as is increasingly recognised, a mixed picture phenotype with evidence of the two conditions co-existent in the same patient. Read more

Feeding microbes to protect the brain: does the gut microbiota mediate the risk-reducing effects of a healthy diet on Alzheimer’s disease?

Queen Mary University of London Institute of Dentistry

Background. Ways of reducing the risk of developing Alzheimer’s disease (AD) and other dementias are critically needed, given the almost total lack of truly effective therapeutic options, even despite newer anti-amyloid drugs1. Read more
