Good to see this comment, because it's so different than the prevailing research views in early days of this group.
Thanks for sharing.Other researchers are also beginning to see Alzheimer’s disease less as a single discrete disorder than as an assortment of processes that go wrong together. If that’s true, treatments that target just one protein in this cascade, such as amyloid, might not have much of a therapeutic benefit.
