This volume is a companion to the highly successful book published
in association with the Journal of Alzheimers Disease (JAD) on the
centennial of Alzheimers discovery: Alzheimers Disease: A Century
of Scientific and Clinical Research. Instead of looking back, this
collection, Alzheimers Disease: Advances for a New Century, will
look forward. Using scientometric analysis the most promising
developments since the Alzheimer Centennial in 2006 have been
substantiated. While prior trends and advances in genetics,
amyloid-, tau, neuropathology, and oxidative stress continue as
active areas, emergent areas impacting the transition from normal
cognition to Alzheimers disease such as diagnostic imaging,
biomarkers, metabolism, and lifestyle (areas conceived only a few
years ago) now dominate the debate. Invited contributors have
summarized their landmark publications identified by our analysis
and have put them into perspective, explaining the impetus behind
the work, the contribution of the results to the field, and who
played a role in the work.
