Summary
This study looks at how a protein called tau builds up in the brain's memory center in older adults with mild memory problems. Researchers will use special PET and MRI scans to measure tau and brain thickness in 150 people. The goal is to better understand early Alzheimer's changes, not to test a treatment.
