The pulse of drug development (approx. 16 min.)
Paul Aisen, M.D., director of the NIA's clinical research network, discusses progress in drug development, the benefits of participating in a clinical trial, and our current knowledge about lifestyle factors and Alzheimer's. (Note: The DHA study mentioned by Dr. Aisen has reported results showing no benefit in those with Alzheimer's and a possible small benefit in those with no memory impairment.)
