Neurodegenerative conditions are characterized by increasing amounts of molecular waste in the brain, such as amyloid-β, α-synuclein, tau, and a few others. In the case of Alzheimer’s disease, evidence suggests that the condition starts because the drainage of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) out of the brain through the cribriform plate declines with age. The plate becomes ossified and less porous as the inflammatory, altered biochemistry of aging changes cell behavior for the worse. This loss of drainage allows many varied forms of molecular waste to build up to har…

“Surreal” is the word that keeps coming to mind. Life has felt like an alternative universe for quite a while now, and it feels even stranger during the holiday season.
After a year of much sacrifice, reality is requiring us to forgo traditions we hold dear and distance ourselves from people we may feel we’ve already gone too long without seeing.
And many are navigating the season with a sense of grief—for lost loved ones, lost purpose, maybe even lost hope.
Maybe that’s not you. Maybe you are full of gratitude for everything you have, and now appreciate even more because of the pandemic.

Some days I look around and feel undeniably blessed to have my health, my family, and all my needs met.
