Research recently published in the journal
Science suggests that an understanding of "Mad Cow Disease" may hold the key to better understanding more common neurological disorders such as Alzheimer's and Parkinson's Diseases. Mad Cow Disease is the common name given to a variant of Creutzfelt-Jakob Disease, which is a rare disorder in humans. This is an especially aggressive disease that progresses quickly over a 3-4 month period, leaving holes in the brains of those who contract it.
