ByPartha Nandi, MD

Picture an Alzheimer’s treatment with no pills, no infusions, and no surgery, just an hour a day of light flickering and sound pulsing 40 times per second. It sounds too simple to work, yet it has reached phase III clinical testing. The need is real. Newer drugs clear amyloid plaques but slow decline by only…

Breakthrough Discovery Shows How Brain Cell Death Starts in Dementia

ByPartha Nandi, MD

Something small went wrong inside three children’s brains, triggering a cascade that scientists spent 14 years unraveling. These kids shared an identical genetic mutation affecting just one amino acid in a single enzyme. That tiny flaw disabled a protective system every neuron depends on to survive. Researchers at Helmholtz Munich and Technical University of Munich…
