Cafeine to prevent Alzheimer disease?
The Dr Thibaud Lebouvier, neurologist at the Memory Center of the Lille University Hospital has received a grant to conduct the CAFCA clinical trial. This clinical trial aims to measure the capacity of coffee (more precisely cafeine) to slow down/prevent the symptoms of Alzheimer disease.
This project is in collaboration with Dr David Blum of the “Alzheimer and Tauopathy” team of the JP AUbert Research center in Lille
In early January 2019, JPND will launch a cohesive action with the European Commission – a call for “Multinational research projects on personalised medicine for neurodegenerative diseases”.
The LiCEND will participate to the SUNDAY HAPPY FUNDAY event “SINGING IN THE BRAIN” which will take place on the 16th of December 2018 at the Aéronef hall.
