Abstract
The presentation will review the up-to-date evidence from clinical trials focussing on prevention, symptomatic treatment and disease modification of Alzheimer’s disease and related conditions. Emerging findings from our own studies will also be presented, including studies examining the maintenance of cognitive function, our on-line PROTECT platform, work focussing on the treatment of agitation, psychosis and pain in people with dementia and new work examining human grade stem cell therapies.
Join us afterwards for our informal monthly APEx meeting: updates on progress in
APEx and networking (refreshments will be served).
