that delays the onset people expected to
of Alzheimer’s by just develop Alzheimer’s
5 years, then: would not in 2050.
In Summary …
• Exciting time in research
– New tools for detection and diagnosis
– Growing diversity of therapies under investigation
• New research adding credibility to future
therapy that combines drugs and modifiable
risk factor interventions
• There is HOPE in research !!
