The branch of science that is related to memory loss or brain damage is known as dementia pathophysiology. It results in the total memory loss and in general cases it affects the basic capability of a person to think and respond to normal issues also. Some of the categories are alzheimerâs disease and lewy body dementia.The degenerative diseases are characterized clinically by loss of neurological function (dementia, loss of movement control, paralysis), and pathologically by loss of neurons.
Open access to the scientific literature means the removal of barriers (including price barriers) from accessing scholarly work. There are two parallel âroadsâ towards open access: Open Access articles and self-archiving. Open Access articles are immediately, freely available on their Web site, a model mostly funded by charges paid by the author (usually through a research grant). The alternative for a researcher is âself-archivingâ (i.e., to publish in a traditional journal, where only subscribers have immediate access, but to make the article available on their personal and/or institutional Web sites (including so-called repositories or archives)), which is a practice allowed by many scholarly journals.
Open Access raises practical and policy questions for scholars, publishers, funders, and policymakers alike, including what the return on investment is when paying an article processing fee to publish in an Open Access articles, or whether investments into institutional repositories should be made and whether self-archiving should be made mandatory, as contemplated by some funders.
