Game on: Cross-campus collaboration brings art, technology and play to young neurology patients (opens the original)
Read excerpt
LEXINGTON, Ky. (Sept. 30, 2026) — For children participating in a six-minute walk test at the University of Kentucky, a trip down the clinic hallway can now become something more: a game. Armed with a wand of their choosing, young patients move through a course with interactive stations positioned along the route. At each completed lap, they scan the wand to earn a point and level up an avatar displayed on a screen. Behind the playful experience is a serious research question: Can turning a stan

LEXINGTON, Ky. (Sept. 23, 2026) — A University of Kentucky neurologist is proposing a new diagnostic roadmap that could help doctors identify hidden brain cancers earlier and prevent patients from undergoing months of treatment for the wrong condition.

Read excerpt
LEXINGTON, Ky. (Sept. 10, 2026) — Much of the progress in Alzheimer’s disease research in recent years has focused on preventing or slowing the disease in its earliest stages. But for millions of people already living with advanced dementia — and the families caring for them — another question remains: how can we make life better now? Researchers and clinicians at the University of Kentucky’s Sanders-Brown Center on Aging are working to help answer that question through both research and caregiv
UK researcher earns international award to pursue bold new direction in Alzheimer’s, dementia research (opens the original)
Read excerpt
LEXINGTON, Ky. (Aug. 27, 2026) — For years, scientists studying Alzheimer’s disease and related dementias have focused on one version of a protein called tau, a hallmark of Alzheimer’s disease and more than two dozen other neurodegenerative disorders collectively called tauopathies. But University of Kentucky researcher Daniel Lee, Ph.D., believes another form of tau may hold important clues that have gone largely unnoticed. Now, Lee’s work has earned international recognition.
