## Facts

| Field | Value |
| --- | --- |
| Description | This cluster of papers explores the mechanisms and pathways involved in the clearance of waste products and metabolites from the brain, including the role of the glymphatic system, cerebrospinal fluid dynamics, lymphatic drainage, and the impact on neurological disorders such as Alzheimer's disease and hydrocephalus. It also delves into the structural and functional features of perivascular pathways, choroid plexus biology, and the implications for brain aging. |
