    Researchers "Switch Off" Brain Degeneration In Mice

    Thought this link could be of interest to anyone wondering what recent research is currently underway in the UK to try and halt the progression of AD & other brain diseases:

    It seems that researchers are very close in finding out how to stop AD in humans, great news,
    and to add to this if anyone is unsure what prion diseases are they are CJD/vCJD.
