Dementia Research

Dementia research involves studying how the brain changes that lead to cognitive decline, memory loss, and behavioral symptoms. Scientists explore the causes, risk factors, and progression of conditions like Alzheimer's disease. They also work on developing better diagnostic tools, treatments, and preventive strategies to improve quality of life for those affected. Advances in imaging, genetics, and clinical trials help understand the underlying biology and test new therapies. The goal is to find effective ways to delay, halt, or reverse dementia, ultimately enabling individuals to maintain independence and dignity.
