About

Welcome to The Alzheimer Legacy, an online resource dedicated to the neuropathology heritage of Alois Alzheimer’s groundbreaking work.

On this website, you will find in-depth information on the first case of Alzheimer’s disease, as well as insights into the history of neuropathology in the tradition of Alois Alzheimer and Walther Spielmeyer.

My goal is to provide a comprehensive and authoritative resource for anyone interested in these topics. Explore these pages to learn more about the remarkable contributions of Alois Alzheimer and the neuropathological ‘school’ he founded, and its ongoing impact on brain research.
