UNAIR NEWS – Alzheimer’s disease, also known as dementia, is a neurodegenerative condition characterized by a progressive, chronic decline in memory function. This disorder leads to memory impairment, often manifesting as forgetfulness or cognitive lapses. Alzheimer’s disease occurs when the hippocampus, a key region of the brain responsible for memory, is damaged, resulting in brain shrinkage. The initial symptoms of Alzheimer’s may be subtle, but the disease progresses continuously, causing a gradual decline in memory.
