Description
Abdulhakim Al-Ezzi and seven co-authors published a study in 2025 on brain signals during a thinking task in healthy adults. Long before symptoms, amyloid and tau proteins build up in the brain and may disturb how brain areas work together. The team asked whether that disturbance shows up while a person tackles a hard task.
They recorded head-surface signals while volunteers took the Stroop test, which pits word meaning against ink color. Spinal fluid tests split the group into those with normal and abnormal protein levels. The abnormal group showed stronger directed links between some sensors during the task. Such signal changes might one day flag the disease before memory fails.
