The Neurologists Who Fought Alzheimer's By Studying Nuns' Brains
No population is safe from Alzheimer's. Even Nuns' have it. It's a devastating illness and every time I read about, I want to find the cure.
I didn't know that the Nun Study existed. I definitely did not know that it led to the largest Alzheimer's studies that exist today.
They mentioned the gene APO E and I remember learning about this risk factor in class last semester, but I can't remember the specifics of it. I need to look it up to refresh my memory.
