Announcing a 25,000 Strong Alzheimer's Community Committed to a New Era in Alzheimer's PR Newswire PHILADELPHIA and LONDON, Nov. 12, 2012 - Over 2 million weekly visitors to Alzheimer's Team PHILADELPHIA and LONDON, Nov. 12, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- MediciGlobal Inc., announced today that over 25,000 fans have shown their support for clinical research by joining the Facebook page Alzheimer's Team. The community supports research efforts into clinical research aimed at halting the progression of mild to moderate Alzheimer's disease. "We are the first Facebook community to inform people about the role of Tau tangles in Alzheimer's disease, and the development of the first Tau Aggregation Inhibitor (TAI)," said Liz Moench, President of MediciGlobal, a company dedicated to informing patients and their families about clinical research opportunities, and administrators of Alzheimer's Team. Moench adds that "Even though the tangles in the brain were first reported by Dr. Alois Alzheimer in 1907,[1] few people are aware of the century-long journey that has been undertaken to understand the pathology leading to their formation, their role in dementia, and, ultimately, potentially stopping their spread through the brain to cause advanced Alzheimer's. "Alzheimer's patients and their caregivers are eager to find an effective treatment that can actually arrest the progression of the disease, since no such treatment is currently available today.
