Welcome to Season 4 of Tumor Minutes, where we shift our focus to the most complex organ in the human body: the brain.

After a short break due to technical difficulties, we’re back and diving into a brand-new theme: brain diseases. This season will explore conditions that affect memory, movement, cognition, and identity, including Alzheimer’s disease, Parkinson’s disease, epilepsy, strokes, and more.

In this first episode, we focus on Alzheimer’s disease, the most common cause of dementia worldwide. We break down what Alzheimer’s actually is, how it differs from dementia, and what is happening inside the brain as the disease progresses. From the breakdown of memory formation in the hippocampus to the buildup of amyloid plaques and tau tangles, we explore how this condition slowly changes the brain over time.

We also discuss current treatments, ongoing research, and why understanding Alzheimer’s is crucial for the future of neuroscience and medicine.

This is the beginning of a new season, and a deeper look into how the brain shapes who we are.
