A team of UTMB scientists has achieved a breakthrough in Alzheimer’s research by developing a nasal spray designed to treat the disease and other forms of dementia, reports The Daily News. “This nasal spray approach opens new avenues for non-invasive delivery of tau therapeutic antibodies directly to the brain, and it holds promise for many neurodegenerative diseases,” said UTMB’s Dr. Rakez Kayed.
