Beyond memory loss: The science and hope behind alzheimer’s research
A Nature Outlook on Alzheimer’s disease suggests decades of research might finally be yielding results for people affected by the disease — with contributions from Colombia and a promising treatment that removes plaques, to innovative blood-based diagnostic tests that are revolutionizing early detection.
The Outlook examines fascinating new perspectives, including the potential role of infections in Alzheimer’s disease development and the critical differences in how the condition affects women versus men.
This Nature Outlook on Alzheimer’s disease was produced with financial support from Eli Lilly & Company.

About Nature Outlooks:
Nature Outlooks are supplements published in the Nature journal, focused on a topical area of research and written by our top science journalists.
Every Nature Outlook is supported by an organization — enabling the sponsor organization to communicate to influential researchers and policy-makers their contribution to the subject area and the potential opportunities that lie ahead.
