Thread or group for research discussion?
I heard a report yesterday that there are at least 120 therapies in development and at least 75% of them involve targeting things other than amyloid.
After that, I searched the name of the person who said that and came across a podcast where they were discussing some latest developments.
Made me wonder if there is a thread on here or a group discussion where info is posted about ongoing research. Is there one yet?

There used to be such a thread, but it was dropped when the site was overhauled.

was it a fairly popular thread? did you see a lot of posts? if not, then probably no use in starting one up. but if there was some action, it might be worth it to start.

I don't recall who posted on it.
The Alzheimer's Association has a page with links for current trials.1 -
The former Clinical Trials thread was very popular, with thousands of posts. I posted a few time and I read often. That board was more of a scientific board whereas these boards are more caregiving and informational boards. I miss the Clinical Trials boards, as well as the Musings board.
The link HB mentioned apparently is for information about searching for Clinical Trials, but is not a message board like the previous one.
