I presented my research on Delirium, dementia, and frailty at an Alzheimer's conference last year. There was no evidence of an Alzheimer's amyloid "cabal" in that room. Around 90% of the work being done had to do with early diagnosis: since this is a chronic, long-term disease, like diabetes or heart disease, most of the research and talks were about how to diagnose and treat EARLY, before the neurological damage has been inflicted. In my opinion, there will probably be no silver bullet for Alzheimers, though we may develop long-term treatments which slow the rate and severity of the disease in those pre-disposed or in the early stages of AD.
