76,000 Oregonians have
Alzheimer's disease (AD) or a
related disorder. These
dementias are especially
common with increasing age.
Among those over 65, people
over 85 years old are the
fastest growing segment of
our population. Up to half of
these octogenarians will
develop cognitive impairment
or dementia.
In these pages you will find a
breadth of information
related to clinical programs,
basic and clinical research,
and educational activities and
outreach all geared toward
helping to solve the
challenges of dementia.
