What about research on Alzheimer’s disease?

Researchers are working very hard to find new and better treatments for this disease. They are doing research with people who have different kinds of memory problems to learn the best way to treat Alzheimer’s. They also are looking at how to prevent Alzheimer’s, slow the disease, and reduce the symptoms.

Clinical trials

Clinical trials are research studies that help doctors learn which treatments work best. Healthy people and people with Alzheimer’s may be able to take part in clinical trials.
