Yale researchers developed a new method for measuring oscillations in neuronal activity. It could help identify early biomarkers of Alzheimer’s disease.

"Dementia is often the scariest thing for many patients with Parkinson's disease, more so than motor symptoms," says Sreeganga Chandra, PhD, professor of neurology and of neuroscience at Yale School of Medicine (YSM) and the study's principal investigator. "We are trying to understand the basis of cognitive dysfunction and whether we can find targets to ameliorate it."

New findings reveal motor and cognitive deficits arise through separate mechanisms in Parkinson’s disease, challenging previous thinking.
