This meeting will present the most up to date information on reducing the risk of Alzheimer’s disease and other dementias and maintaining a healthy brain. Leaders in the field will share data, trends and where to get additional information. We will discuss whether those with Mild Cognitive Impairment or Early Stage AD might also benefit from this approach. CaringKind will report on new programs for those recently diagnosed and in the early stage of dementia and for care partners. Dr. Noble will share insights from his book, “Navigating Life with Dementia” and share his perspective on the promise of new drugs in the pipeline.
