  • How can I get my husband in the trials at the Blanchette Rockefelle Neuroscience Institute at West Virginia?

  • Their focus on protein kinase C is excellent. This is a much earlier step in the Alzheimer's disease cascade than beta-amyloid accumulation and plaque. Excellent work. But the drug-mediated blocking of PKC inhibition will also have to block concomitant inhibition of beta-tubulin, creatine kinase, and several phosphatases before it will be a concerted or comprehensive solution to AD. Good luck BRNI!
