Learn About the Latest in Dementia Research

Did you know that 1 in 3 seniors dies with Alzheimer’s or another dementia. It kills more than breast cancer and prostate cancer combined. Deaths from Alzheimer’s have more than doubled between 2000 and 2019, while those from heart disease—the leading cause of death—have decreased.

Join us on May 10th for a FREE event to hear the latest in research and advancements, and to ask our panel of researchers your questions about Alzheimer’s and all other dementias.

Our panel will feature:

  • Percy Griffin, Director of Scientific Engagement for the Alzheimer’s Association
  • Min-Jeong Kim, M.D., Ph.D., Assistant Professor of Psychiatry and Behavioral Health at Stony Brook University School of Medicine
  • A. Zarina Kraal, Ph.D., Postdoctoral Research Scientist, Taub Institute for Research on Alzheimer’s Disease and the Aging Brain. Gertrude H. Sergievsky Center – Department of Neurology Columbia University Irving Medical Center
