New Software Concept Promises Boost for Clinical Trial Recruitment
What if you held a clinical trial and nobody came? While plenty of patients are eager to participate, researchers often have difficulty reaching their target enrollments for clinical trials, the goal of which is to determine the safety and efficacy of new drugs or therapies before they are bro...
Study Confirms Role of Structural Connectivity in Spread of Alzheimerās Disease Pathology
In Alzheimerās, the proteins amyloid-beta and tau begin to accumulate in the brain many years before any clinical signs of the disease are evident. Propagation of these proteins throughout the brain has been linked to cognitive decline in Alzheimerās, but exactly how they spread has long been a m...
