Brain Health: Turning Scientific Discovery into Action (Invite only)

Thursday, December 02, 2021
9:00 AM - 11:00 AM
The Dorchester - Orchid Room
The brain is the most important organ in the body, generating every thought, sensation, memory, emotion, and movement. Yet we rarely focus specifically on caring for the brain and generally do not monitor changes in brain health and function over time. Thanks to scientific and technological advances, we know much more about the human brain and ways to keep it healthy than was the case even 10 years ago. In this session experts will review recent discoveries and explore opportunities for further research and investment aimed at reducing the risk and improving the diagnosis of mental illness, as well as Alzheimer's disease and other dementias.
