* I began the Alzheimer's news section simply because so many news items about memory were about Alzheimer's research, and because it is an area of such concern to people. However, I have no medical background, and my interest in memory is in cognitive rather than neurological aspects. Accordingly, because referencing is such a time-consuming business, I have not referenced the Alzheimer's section).
