Answered
What is the new biological phase in the brain?
The new biological phase in the brain occurs between ages 50 and 75. It is characterized by changes in the brain's fluid structure and microglia's developmental history, which may indicate future dementia risk.
How early can dementia be detected?
According to Futura, dementia may begin changing the brain 20 years before the first sign of memory loss.
What are microglia?
Microglia are a type of glial cell in the brain and spinal cord. They act as the main form of active immune defense in the central nervous system.

Scientists have identified a new biological phase in the brain that may occur between ages 50 and 75. This phase may be linked to the early onset of dementia.
The discovery suggests that changes in the brain begin much earlier than previously thought, potentially 20 years before any noticeable memory loss. The findings indicate that the brain's fluid structure and microglia's developmental history may serve as early indicators of future dementia risk.
Researchers are now focusing on understanding the implications of this new phase and how it can be used to develop early intervention strategies.
