Join us for an engaging presentation and workshop during Western’s Research Week, focused on the dementia journey from prevention to diagnosis and post-diagnostic care.

Led by experts in the field, attendees will gain a deeper understanding of the impact of dementia on individuals and their families, as well as learn practical tools and strategies to support risk reduction.

The workshop portion of the session will offer attendees an opportunity to engage in interactive activities and group discussions, allowing for a more hands-on and immersive approach on how we can bridge the gap between lab and community and to engage the community for positive change.
