The background information (www.alzforum.org/webinars/webinar-pathogenic-protein-spread-lets-think-again) alone on this webinar is challenging reading so I suspect the webinar will be the same, but it’s an important topic. Do multiple system atrophy, Parkinson’s, Alzheimer’s, and frontotemporal dementias spread in a manner similar to prion diseases such as Creutzfeldt-Jakob Disease?
And, if you are willing to register your email address with nature.com, find a link to the Nature Reviews Neuroscience journal article on the pathogenic hypothesis here: www.nature.com/nrn/journal/v17/n4/full/nrn.2016.13.html
[The webinar was hosted by Alzforum on Friday, April 8, at 9am California time. A recording is available on-line at
