Cure for Dementia? Ammanites


A temporary cure has been found for dementia. It was tested on mice and temporarily halted dementia in their brains. Scientists are hoping this will open new gates to modern medicine.

Brain

 

Do you think think this will open a new world of medicine? Or could this perhaps be a dangerous experiment because it is dealing with human brains?

testing on animal brains is completely different from testing on a human brain but it could aslo open a whole new oppertunity to curing Dementia.

I think this could for sure open up new gates to medicine, but at the same time might be dangerous in the process. I think they should continue to work on things other than human brains.

I think its a start and is going in the right direction. With any chances of a medical break through there is always a risk. Dementia is a general/overall term that covers a range of symptoms and Having volunteering at a senior home I have witnessed it and its very sad. They should continue their research

I think that through time scientists will find a cure to dementia because our technology is advancing every day. I think they should keep doing research and tests to make sure the cure won't be dangerous on people.

I believe there is good in knowing but if the outcomes are negative then we will know what would be the next step in research.

I think this is a great achievement! If it is tested on humans and has the same effect this will be a huge medical advancement.

I think this could be a dangerous testing process on the people that have to do this.

This could definitely turn out good for humans but more research and testing on higher lifeforms is necessary.
