Event Description
Webinar host Dr. Amelie Ramirez, leader of Salud America! and the Institute for Health Promotion Research at UT Health San Antonio, will join experts from the San Antonio CAPAS research program, a representative from Genentech, a community health worker, and a Latino caregiver to focus on the impact of Alzheimer’s in South Texas and beyond.
Panelists will discuss the state of Alzheimer’s among Latinos and all people, early signs, early diagnosis, and what the condition means for the entire family and caregiving.
In understanding the reasons for the Latino population’s heavy burden of Alzheimer’s disease, we can begin to address the issue to prevent Alzheimer’s in Latinos and all people at all levels, from research to clinical settings to community outreach and education.
