New Framework for Analyzing Alzheimer’s Disease Identifies Not One Form, but Three

A new framework reveals Alzheimer's disease is far more complex than previously believed. Rather than being a disease where the same causes produce the same outcomes, researchers found three different models for the disease, each with its own characterizations and dynamics.
