In July, the Lancet Commission launched its 2024 report on dementia prevention, intervention, and care. Dr. Gauthier will explain the new findings on modifiable risk factors for dementia, and how addressing them can prevent or delay disease progression.
Serge Gauthier, MD, is a clinical neurologist specializing in the development of new tools for diagnosis and treatments for people living with Alzheimer’s disease. He is the Academic Co-Lead for the Dementia Education Program and Professor Emeritus in the Department of Neurology & Neurosurgery and the Department of Psychiatry at McGill University. Dr. Gauthier was the Director of the McGill University Research Centre for Studies in Aging from 1986 to 1997.
