Science progresses in predicting dementia early with biomarkers

EL PAÍS USA July 9, 2024, 07:00 PM UTC

Summary: Science is making strides in predicting dementia early through biomarkers like beta amyloid and tau proteins. Alzheimer's research leads the way, with potential for early detection and preventive policies. New drugs aim to slow disease progression. Parkinson's research also shows promise in predicting symptoms years in advance. While challenges remain, experts emphasize the importance of advancing early detection tools for neurodegenerative diseases.
