Dementias

In this article, we will debunk common myths surrounding chronic loneliness and explore the scientific facts that make it a public health concern just as serious as smoking.

New research shows that the brain organises daily experiences into segments, much like scenes in a movie. The study reveals that memory boundaries are not solely determined by external factors, but also by personal priorities and interpretations. The findings indicate that we have more control over how we perceive and recall experiences than previo...

World Alzheimer's Day, observed annually on September 21st, aims to raise awareness, combat stigma, and advocate for research and support for individuals living with Alzheimer's disease and their caregivers.

The couple, married for 46 years, will travel to Switzerland where voluntary assisted suicide has been legal in 1942.

Does your work keep you glued to screens for a longer period? Beware, coupled with no physical activity, it might take a toll on your brain's cognitive functions and lead to digital dementia, warned experts on Tuesday.

Recent research sheds new light on how the brain stores and manages memories, revealing that it maintains at least three distinct copies of each memory. This study, conducted on rodents, provides valuable insights into the brain's memory encoding process and suggests that multiple types of neurons play a role in storing these memories. The research...

A new mice study may have found an association between an enzyme and memory loss in elderly people, an advance that can someday pave the way for the treatment of Alzheimer's disease and dementia.

Millions of cases of dementia could be prevented or delayed by reducing a range of risk factors such as smoking or air pollution, according to a major new study, though outside experts warn that such measures can only go so far.

People with anxiety could be at three times the risk of developing dementia compared to those without anxiety, according to a study.

In this article, we share some foods that can be beneficial for people with dementia.

The Dutch couple decided to go through euthanasia after Els' dementia worsened and she was not able to decide on her own.

Michelle Obama has quite clearly said no to running for office in the past. However, not only is eight years a long time in politics, but the current circumstances are such for the Democrats that it might just make even the unlikely happen.

A new study has provided genetic evidence linking a common condition of the blood vessels in brain to dementia and Alzheimer's disease.

In this article, we share a list of foods and drinks that can lower dementia risk.

Scientists today said they have devised a new method to detect rare forms of dementia as well as other neurological diseases through blood tests.
