Dr Kamar Ameen-Ali - Recent advances in Alzheimer’s treatments: Game-changers or false hope?

Dr Kamar Ameen-Ali narrates her blog written for Dementia Researcher.

In Kamar's latest blog post, the recent advances in Alzheimer's treatments are put under the microscope. While some herald these new drugs as breakthroughs, the blog questions the extent of their effectiveness and safety. Drawing on data and firsthand experience, it explores whether these treatments truly offer hope or merely fuel false expectations. A must-read for those seeking a balanced view on Alzheimer's research.
