26 - Refining and Repurposing Treatments: Alzheimer's Disease June 2020

Having trouble keeping up with the literature in Alzheimer's Disease? We are here to help!  

In this episode, Sarah updates you on the papers from June 2020 that aim to refine or repurpose drugs and other treatments for Alzheimer's disease!  This includes studies on refining existing AD treatments, refining the method of delivery, and repurposing non-AD drugs for use in AD treatment. If you're interested in learning more about research on AD treatments, you should also check out our episodes on novel drug development, pre-clinical and clinical testing. Enjoy today's episode!
