Can AI Find a Cure for Alzheimer’s Disease?

Alzheimer’s disease is one of the most complex and heartbreaking health challenges of our time, affecting millions of individuals and families worldwide. For decades, scientists and healthcare professionals have tirelessly pursued a cure, but the path has been long and fraught with obstacles. Now, artificial intelligence (AI) is emerging as a powerful new tool in the fight against Alzheimer’s, raising the question: can AI help us find a cure?

In this compelling exploration, Dr. Tursun Alkam explores the transformative role of AI in Alzheimer’s research and care. From early detection and personalized treatment to advanced drug discovery and caregiving support, AI is revolutionizing our understanding of this disease. But while AI offers unprecedented speed, precision, and insight, it is not a magic solution. Through clear explanations, real-world stories, and a grounded look at AI’s potential and limitations, Dr. Alkam provides a nuanced answer to whether AI alone can “cure” Alzheimer’s—and what it truly brings to the journey.

This book is essential reading for anyone interested in the future of healthcare, from researchers and clinicians to caregivers and families affected by Alzheimer’s. With compassion and expertise, Dr. Alkam illustrates that while AI may not be the cure itself, it is an invaluable ally that brings us closer than ever to a future of hope, support, and breakthroughs in Alzheimer’s care.
