Identifying and validating these risk factors remains one of the most critical scientific challenges. Several diseases appear to have strong implications for neurodegeneration leading to dementia. This risk encompasses different forms o

Several of these actors are scientific communities that aim at providing policy recommendations based on expert knowledge for the negotiations. The literature within the science-policy nexus is applied to investigate the significance of expert communities however the literature does not target environmenta
