Alzheimer’s Disease: Advances for a New Century
Using scientometric analysis, the most promising developments since the Alzheimer Centennial in 2006 have been substantiated. While prior trends and advances in genetics, amyloid-ß, tau, neuropathology, and oxidative stress continue as active areas, emergent areas impacting the transition from normal cognition to Alzheimer’s disease such as diagnostic imaging, biomarkers, metabolism, and lifestyle (areas conceived only a few years ago) now dominate the debate. Invited contributors have summarized their landmark publications identified by our analysis and have put them into perspective, explaining the impetus behind the work, the contribution of the results to the field, and who played a role in the work. Special offer from JADJAD is proud to announce the launch of "Alzheimer’s Disease: Advances for a New Century", published both online in JAD’s special supplement issue and as a commemorative print edition in the book series Advances in Alzheimer’s Disease.
