In this clip, I describe the connection between sleep, the glymphatic system, and dementia risk.”

“Alzheimer's disease, the most common cause of dementia, has been the subject of a large body of research in recent decades. However, the number of effective therapies for the disease is small, demonstrating the need for additional research into the mechanisms of dementia.”
