Description

An estimated 80 million people live with a neurodegenerative disease with this number expected to double by 2050 Despite decades of research and billions in funding there are no medications that can slow much less stop the progress of these diseases The time to rethink degenerative brain disorders has come

With no biological boundaries between neurodegenerative diseases illnesses such as Parkinsons and Alzheimers result from a large spectrum of biological abnormalities hampering effective treatment Acclaimed neurologist Dr Alberto Espay and Parkinsons advocate Benjamin Stecher present compelling evidence that these diseases should be targeted according to genetic and molecular signatures rather than clinical diagnoses There is no Parkinsons or Alzheimers simply people with Parkinsons or Alzheimers An incredibly important story never before told Brain Fables is a wakeup call to the scientific community and society explaining why we have no effective diseasemodifying treatments and how we can get back on track
