Maternal History May Explain Higher Risk of Alzheimer's
A family history of Alzheimer's disease is one of the most significant risk factors for developing the disease, which is the most common form of senile dementia. Now an international collaboration of researchers has found the likely basis for this increased familial risk--particularly from the maternal side. More...20 Apr 2010
UK Project Promises Earlier Detection of Brain Tumors
