Scientists used artificial intelligence to create tiny antibody fragments that can function inside human cells, targeting proteins that cause Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, and other brain diseases. This breakthrough overcomes a major limitation in medicine development and could lead to new treatments for conditions affecting over one million people in the UK alone.
Canadian researchers discovered a groundbreaking way to stabilize damaged brain proteins using weak magnetic fields, opening new doors for treating diseases affecting over a million Canadians. The quantum biology breakthrough could revolutionize how we approach neurodegenerative disease treatment.
Scientists have found a way to use CAR T-cells, already proven to cure some cancers, to slow the devastating effects of ALS by targeting rogue immune cells in the brain. The breakthrough could extend lives and eventually help treat dementia and other neurodegenerative diseases.
Northwestern Medicine researchers discovered how to help mice with ALS live longer and stay stronger by targeting a protein that was accidentally protecting toxic buildup in their cells. The breakthrough opens a new path for treating multiple brain diseases.
