Alzheimer's Resources on the Internet


This list of sources on the Internet is not claimed to be exhaustive. All the links worked at the time of inclusion. If you find any broken links, please .


There is a Newsgroup for those interested in Alzheimer's Disease. alt.support.alzheimers. While much of the content comes from the USA, it is often valuable and there are plenty of UK subscribers too.

There is also a mailing list one can join. The list owners also keep archives of material. To subscribe and obtain further information, send email to
majordomo@wubios.wustl.edu
with the following one line command/message in the body:
subscribe ALZHEIMER
You can elect to receive all messages, or a daily digest. This is a large list, so I get the digest version. One can still send messages to the list in the same way. Again, mostly American, but then Alzheimer's is the same wherever you are. :-(
