AI maps hidden brain chemistry in Alzheimer's beyond plaques
TL;DR
Rice University researchers produced the first label-free molecular atlas of an Alzheimer's brain using hyperspectral Raman imaging paired with machine learning, revealing uneven, brain-wide chemical changes—especially in memory regions—extending beyond amyloid plaques and pointing to broader metabolic disruption (not just a protein problem) that could inform earlier diagnosis and new treatments.
