The Brain Bus raises awareness of Alzheimer's and related dementias and addresses the benefits of early detection, early diagnosis, brain health and risk reduction. With two mobile units and virtual offerings, the Brain Bus is able to travel throughout Florida.
Alzheimer’s is a global health problem with nearly 7 million people living with
the disease in the U.S. alone. Tremendous gains have been made in the
understanding of the science and basic biology underlying Alzheimer’s and
other dementias. These advances are leading to great strides in strategies
for risk reduction, detection, diagnostics and therapeutic interventions. The
Alzheimer’s Association is a global leader in research, mobilizing the field to
advance the vision of a world without Alzheimer’s and all other dementia.
Join us and special guest speaker, Courtney Kloske, Ph.D., as we take a deep dive into the
role of genetics in Alzheimer’s disease.
Topics to be covered:
Landscape of Alzheimer’s and dementia science.
Genetics and Alzheimer’s.
Risk reduction.
Where the field is going.
