Less scientific write up http://www.sciencealert.com/new-alzheimer-s-treatment-fully-restores-memory-function : Of the mice that received the treatment, 75 percent got their memories back.

My only worry is if they treated me, I really wouldn't like to get a mouse memory turning up.

Sadly I now have a reason to look into this stuff as my mother was recently diagnosed with AD and early onset Parkinson's.  :-[
