Trump cancelled the federal grant for this program, so it might falter in upcoming years.
Trump: that’s my beautiful Alzheimer’s and I won’t let any pesky scientist mess with it! I stopped 19 wars! This wouldn’t happen if I were a president! Covfefe!
From the article:
A U.S. District Court in September struck down the Trump Administration’s cancelation of $2.2 billion in research funding to Harvard, restoring critical grants supporting lifesaving research. But with two major federal grants ending in the near future, Yankner isn’t sure how forthcoming new rounds of funding might be.
That’s a real boneitis situation

Isn’t lithium already used to treat bipolar disorder? I don’t know that it’s this lithium orotate they are talking about, but it feels like it would be good data to check rates of Alzheimer’s on people using lithium as treatment for bipolar disorder.
Either way, I hope this pans out into something useful for once.
Lithium orotate is a supplement, no longer one of the forms of lithium used for bipolar disorder. I had a relative who took lithium orotate daily and still developed Alzheimer’s.
