Yeah, it's popped up plenty of times, but we've never just done a straight-up Alzheimer's one. Alzheimer's brings on dementia through something called neurofibrillary tangles, also known as beta, or I'm sorry, tau protein tangles.

Right? Yeah, and the plaques are just a protein buildup, a sticky protein buildup.

Yeah, which is so when your neurons fire and you have a thought, it's an electrochemical process and there's residual that is left behind. And these residuals can build up in your synapses and cause your synapses to not fire as well. And when your synapses don't fire as well, they start to die off and the neurons that are...

that lead from these synapses, or lead to these synapses, die themselves, and you have neural loss. Like, literally the brain cells in your brain are dying off at a rapid rate.
