Focusing on the evolution of Alzheimer's Disease research since its naming in 1910, the author examines significant findings and drug development over the past three decades. Christian Behl contextualizes dementia research within its historical framework and raises critical questions about the persistent gaps in understanding the disease's causes. He challenges the predominant emphasis on the amyloid beta hypothesis and explores alternative theories that may better explain the complexities of Alzheimer's pathology, highlighting the need for broader perspectives in ongoing research.
