This episode is incredible. I’m writing a paper right now on policy S. 133 which was presented to the Senate last year to continue the National Alzheimer’s Project Act. This episode popped up just in time to help me find evidence to support that most of our funds should go towards prevention, not another drug (after 20 years of research has yet to produce a cure). Thank you for such amazing information!

Dr. Rangan Chatterjee's TED Talk will be of interest to you, where he speaks a bit about Alzheimers towards the end... He has also done a few podcasts on this topic...
