New Journal to Explore Neurodegenerative, Neuroprotective and Euroregenerative ...( WESTON Mass. Oct. 2 /- Weston Med...),Health
WESTON, Mass., Oct. 2 /PRNewswire/ -- Weston Medical Publishing today announced publication of the first issue of Journal of Neurodegeneration and Regeneration. (ISSN 1932-1481) This new peer-reviewed journal is designed to explore all aspects of neurodegeneration, neuroprotection and neuroregeneration including the molecular mechanisms, experimental approaches and their relevance in treating neurodegenerative disorders and neuroregenerative therapies.

In the United States alone, almost five million suffer from Alzheimer's disease; one million from Parkinson's disease; 400,000 from multiple sclerosis; and 30,000 from ALS. Worldwide, these four diseases account for more than 20 million patients."
"Further," he went on to say, "It is generally accepted that things are
going to get worse before they get better. Aging greatly increases the risk
of neurodegenerative disease and the average age of Americans and the
worldwide populations are increasing. Today, over 37 million Americans
alone are over the age of 65. Within the next 30 years this number is
likely to double, putting more and more people at increased risk of
