Washington University School of Medicine sleep specialist Yo-El Ju, MD, led a research team that found circadian rhythm disruptions occur in people whose memories are intact but whose brain scans show early, preclinical evidence of Alzheimer's disease. She previously had discovered that people with clinical symptoms of Alzheimer's have disturbances in their internal body clocks that affect the sleep/wake cycle.
