An authority on Alzheimer's disease offers a history of past failures and a roadmap that points us in a new direction in our journey to a cure.

For decades, some of our best and brightest medical scientists have dedicated themselves to finding a cure for Alzheimer's disease. What happened? Where is the cure? The biggest breakthroughs occurred twenty-five years ago, with little progress since. In How Not to Study a Disease, neurobiologist Karl Herrup explains why the Alzheimer's discoveries of the 1990s didn't bear fruit and maps a direction for future research. Herrup describes the research, explains what's taking so long, and offers an approach for resetting future research.

Herrup offers a unique insider's perspective, describing the red flags that science ignored in the rush to find a cure. He is unsparing in calling out the stubbornness, greed, and bad advice that has hamstrung the field, but his final message is a largely optimistic one. Herrup presents a new and sweeping vision of the field that includes a redefinition of the disease and a fresh conceptualization of aging and dementia that asks us to imagine the brain as a series of interconnected "neighborhoods." He calls for changes in virtually every aspect of the Alzheimer's disease research effort, from the drug development process, to the mechanisms of support for basic research, to the often-overlooked role of the scientific media, and more. With How Not to Study a Disease, Herrup provides a roadmap that points us in a new direction in our journey to a cure for Alzheimer's.

Timex quality and reliability 👍🏼👍🏼
A really nice watch with a face big enough to easily see the numbers. One thing I like is the watch band is more comfortable than usual ones. Recommended

Another great Timex
Another great Timex. The large numerals are very easy to read and yet don’t overwhelm the face. It has a really nice lume along with Indiglo so I can see the time even in complete darkness. It has a fun feel to it while still looking classy. Well done, Timex.
