Interest/Questions
• Why or how is there excess iron in the brain? • Is excess iron in the brain a viable cause of AD?• What is the relationship between excess iron in
the brain and AD?• What are the neurological effects of excess iron
in the brain?

Research and Knowledge Gained
• What is Alzheimer’s disease?

Research and Knowledge Gained• What does iron do in the brain, what are some of its
functions and properties?

Purpose, Impact, Importance• Where does the research go from here?
- Properties of iron + Knowledge of AD = Relationship between the two.
• How can it be used?- Cause or contributing factor of AD- Treatments/medical advice accordingly
