The Latest in Alzheimer's and Dementia Research with Alexis Bonoff In-Person

Alzheimer's is an escalating health crisis. More than 6 million Americans are living with the disease and over 11 million individuals are their caregivers. Tremendous gains have been made in understanding the science and basic biology underlying Alzheimer's and other dementias. These advances are leading to great strides in strategies for prevention, detection, diagnostics and therapeutic interventions. Join us to learn more about: 

  • The landscape of Alzheimer's and dementia science
  • Risk factors for Alzheimer's and all other dementia
  • Highlights in early detection and diagnosis
  • Recent advances in clinical trials, treatments and lifestyle interventions

This program will be livestreamed and available to watch later. Link forthcoming.
