Scientists from the University of Bradford are part of a team conducting potentially ground-breaking research in Alzheimer’s disease.
They have collaborated with other scientists at the University of Dundee to study the proteins that can lead to the devastating condition.
Their findings, published in the journal Nature, show a new means of trapping these proteins, meaning expensive laboratory conditions are no longer required to examine them.
The team says the discovery is a “major step forward” in Alzheimer’s treatments.
