We're hosting a virtual early-onset dementia meeting for families to learn about the latest research in the field of early-onset Alzheimer’s disease, get care and support resources and share insights and experiences. This is also an opportunity to learn about the Longitudinal Early-onset Alzheimer’s Disease Study (LEADS). As many as 200,000 individuals with Alzheimer’s in the U.S. under the age of 65 are living with the early-onset form of the disease. Through LEADS, there is hope that we can move toward a better understanding of younger-onset Alzheimer’s disease. Individuals with younger-onset Alzheimer’s disease and those without Alzheimer’s can potentially participate in this important research. Registration is free. Please share the link with anyone that may be interested. bit.ly/3LdpJlN

The work you're doing is incredibly important. By establishing standards for baseline cognitive assessments, physicians can lay the groundwork for accurately tracking cognitive changes and improving early diagnosis. This crucial step ensures we can more effectively identify and address cognitive changes.

Thank you so much for the important work you do! Keep it up with these great events!

Thank you for serving families in our community!

Registered! I’m looking forward to learning and networking with researchers in the field. Since I work with members who have dementia, I’m always eager to gain more knowledge about this common disease to better support them.
