Remembering and Forgetting video
I found the video on remembering and forgetting very interesting, especially the part about the eye-blink conditioning helping to detect Alzheimer's even earlier. This relates to me because my mom has worked with Alzheimer's patients for a long time and I have seen the stages in which it goes through first-hand. To detect Alzheimer's early is a big deal. Although there isn't a treatment yet, it is very possible that if this really is an accurate detection of the disease, that the medicine would be able to develop enough eventually to be able to cure it when caught in it's early stages. Right now, however, all we can do is exercise our mind in hopes to keep it longer.
