About this Event

Approximately 1 in 9 adults aged 65 or older has Alzheimer's disease or a related cause of dementia. Although there is no cure, up to 40% of cases of dementia could be delayed or prevented. This talk provides up-to-date information about modifiable risk factors for dementia, and what investigators at the University of Delaware are doing to advance Alzheimer's disease research. 

Dr. Cohen is a clinical neuropsychologist, an Associate Professor in UD's Dept. of Communication Sciences & Disorders, and the Associate Director of the Delaware Center for Cognitive Aging Research. His research focuses on early detection of and early intervention for Alzheimer's disease and related conditions.
