Experts at USC are using neural imaging to gain a deeper understanding of how sleep quality impacts the brain clearance process, a potential predictor of Alzheimer’s for the community at greatest risk for the disease.
University Research | Alzheimers | University of Southern CaliforniaAmong older Americans surveyed in the weeks after FDA approval of aducanumab, few could correctly answer true or false questions about the first new Alzheimer’s drug in decades.
University Research | Alzheimers | University of Southern CaliforniaA USC team is using machine learning tools to detect early-onset Alzheimer’s disease by examining speech patterns.
University Research | Researching the Brain, Seeking Cures | Alzheimers | University of Southern CaliforniaMouse study of human stroke medication reveals potential defense against Alzheimer’s disease and other forms of dementia.
University Research | Researching the Brain, Seeking Cures | Alzheimers | University of Southern CaliforniaA diet containing compounds found in green tea and carrots reversed Alzheimer’s-like symptoms in mice genetically programmed to develop the disease, USC researchers say.
University Research | Researching the Brain, Seeking Cures | Alzheimers | University of Southern CaliforniaIn a new study, USC researchers used machine learning to identify potential blood-based markers of Alzheimer’s disease that could help with earlier diagnosis and tracking the progress of the disease.
Researching the Brain, Seeking Cures | Alzheimers | University of Southern CaliforniaLeaky capillaries in the brain portend early onset of Alzheimer’s disease as they signal cognitive impairment before hallmark toxic proteins appear, new USC research shows.
Researching the Brain, Seeking Cures | Alzheimers | University of Southern CaliforniaA new USC study shows that older African-Americans who received culturally tailored text messages about Alzheimer’s disease had the highest increase in Alzheimer’s disease literacy levels when compared with other participants.
Researching the Brain, Seeking Cures | Alzheimers | University of Southern CaliforniaUSC scientists have created the most detailed atlas yet of the hippocampus, the brain’s memory bank. Using fluorescent tracers and 3D animation, the scientists show structures, nerve connections and functions in vivid detail.
Researching the Brain, Seeking Cures | Alzheimers | University of Southern CaliforniaNew research from USC has uncovered a previously unknown genetic risk factor for Alzheimer’s disease and related dementias. The study provides insights on how these conditions, and other diseases of aging, might one day be treated and prevented.
