The @theNASEM webinar on research priorities for preventing and treating Alzheimer’s and related dementias is on Jan 15 2PM ET! Join to hear key findings from the new report. Follow the link to see more details and register.
#AlzheimersDisease and related dementias (AD/ADRD) are a collection of neurodegenerative conditions that can cause cognitive impairment and lead to the development of clinical #dementia. Join us January 15 to learn about research priorities for AD/ADRD: https://t.co/Da3UtKym7W

I was privileged to be part of the committee that authored the new NASEM report on AD/ADRD research priorities. The process was uplifting and inspiring, and I hope the report sparks meaningful discussions and drives progress in this critical field.
Developing strategies for preventing and treating #Alzheimers disease and related dementias is one of the most pressing needs in #BiomedicalResearch today. Read about strategies for advancing #dementia research from a new @NASEM_Health report: https://t.co/pJ89cLvlS1
