April Topic–Neurodegenerative diseases
Neurodegenerative diseases (NDs) are characterized by progressive loss of structure and function of neurons. While traditionally studied for their cognitive and motor impairments, sensory processing disruptions are equally significant yet often underreported. Sensory deficits—ranging from visual and auditory hallucinations to altered tactile and olfactory responses—provide insights into disease progression and pathology. This study explores how neurodegenerative diseases impair the brain’s interpretation and processing of sensory input across modalities..
