Join the National Institutes of Health's State-of-the-Science Conference on Preventing Alzheimer's Disease and Cognitive Decline April 26-28, 2010 Natcher Conference Center | NIH Campus | Bethesda, Maryland http://www.consensus.nih.gov Continuing education information: http://consensus.nih.gov/2010/alzcme.htm For many older adults, cognitive health and performance remain stable, with only a gradual and slight decline in short-term memory and reaction times. Others, however, progress into a more serious state of cognitive impairment or into various forms of dementia, including Alzheimer's disease. In addition to investigating the causes and potential treatments for Alzheimer's and other dementias, researchers are focused on finding ways to prevent cognitive decline. Many preventive measures for cognitive decline and for preventing Alzheimer's have been suggested, but their value in delaying the onset and/or reducing the severity of decline or disease is unclear. Be part of pivotal discussions that will help answer critical questions related preventing Alzheimer's disease and cognitive decline. The conference is free and open to the public. Your input is valuable. Please join us! Information and Registration http://consensus.nih.gov | 1-888-644-2667 Can't attend?
