Their results are published today in Angewandte Chemie. The origin of the most prevalent form of Alzheimer s disease, which accounts for 95% of cases, is still not clear despite decades of scientific studies. Before understanding the pathology, we need to understand the biology , explains Montse Soler López, scientist leading research on Alzheimer s disease at the ESRF. The only thing we are sure about is that the most common form of Alzheimer s is linked with ageing , she assert
