Unfortunately, the lack of awareness spells disaster. The stroke victim may suffer severe brain damage when people nearby fail to recognize the symptoms of a […]
Parkinsons Disease may be controllable with man made polymer
May 30, 2009 By
Saw that researchers at ANSTO have found another piece in the puzzle to develop treatments for Parkinsons disease. They have focussed on a protein called Alpha-Synuclein which in certain circumstance affects transmissions to the the brain. Using a man made polymer (called a dendrimer) behaviours can be stopped or even reversed. For more on this […]
