Press Herald features new collaborative Alzheimer’s research project
The Portland Press Herald highlighted a partnership between the University of Maine, The Jackson Laboratory and Northern Light Health to research whether a simple eye exam could help detect Alzheimer’s disease, other types of dementia or similar diseases in patients before symptoms begin to appear. The collaborative team is beginning the next stage of research, which will include tests on people as part of a $300,000 pilot program. The Sun Journal and Kennebec Journal shared the report from the Press Herald.
