Overcoming Alzheimer’s

Health research has extended and improved our lives in countless ways.

In fact, one recent poll suggests that our success in combatting disease has shifted thinking around the globe.

The international survey demonstrated that people are as fearful of Alzheimer’s as much as they fear cancer.

While it’s great news that people expect to live longer, healthier lives, Alzheimer’s is a disease where there are many unknowns and of course…no treatments.

This week, OHSU’s Dr. Joe Quinn of the OHSU Layton Aging & Alzheimer’s Disease Center took to the airwaves on OPB to talk about research to combat Alzheimer’s and dementia.

Here’s a link to the show.
