Growing evidence suggests that African Americans may be at higher risk to develop
Alzheimer’s and stroke-related dementia due to higher incidence of developing
vascular disease (including diabetes, high blood pressure and high cholesterol).
This conference features top researchers and professionals from the Medical University of South Carolina and Roper St. Francis to provide information about education, research, and current clinical trials that are taking place. Join us to learn about how heart health impacts brain health, the importance of dental health, tips to reduce inflammation and more!
If you are a family caregiver for someone with dementia, complimentary sitter service is available through the Alzheimer's Association to enable you to attend. Please call 2 weeks in advance to inquire: 800-272-3900.
