Neurons use simple physics to maintain their connections, but these processes change in Alzheimer's patients

Scientists at Auburn University have uncovered a fundamental principle of how brain cells stay connected, and their discovery could change how we understand Alzheimer's disease. Published in Cell Reports, this study reveals that neurons—the cells that make up our brain—use simple physics to maintain their connections, and that these processes change in Alzheimer's patients.
