What is really going on beyond the recent headliens involving Alzheimer’s Disease research and misconduct? Heard Tell viewers asked for this story to be covered, and we reached out to Dr Ryan Townely, a clinician and Alzheimer’s disease researcher who participates in clinical research trials and educates medical students, neurology residents, and fellows. Dr Townley will explain the controversies, what headlines are sensationalized, what parts of the stories folks need to pay attention to, and give good facts and information on a disease that rightly terrifies people and is devistating to almost 6 million Americans with no treatment or cure. Dr Townley also talks about what we do know about the disease, the good research and work that is advancing towards treatments and cures, and risk factors and things folks can do in the mean time.
