Our clinical care and research is focused on understanding early changes in cognition and memory in older people and currently targets the following areas:
| • |
The relationship between chronic diseases (such as diabetes) and memory decline |
| • |
The impact of medications on memory decline and memory preservation |
| • |
Understanding basic mechanisms of memory loss |
| • |
Evaluation and treatment of early memory decline in older adults |
The Goal: to translate discoveries about preventing memory decline into helping older adults maintain independence as long as possible, and to compress disability into the shortest possible period of time. |
