Cambridge Council on Aging (COA) invites you to join us for Part 2 of a 3-part lecture series on Memory, Aging and Alzheimer’s Disease.
Today, we will show the compelling PBS documentary Can Alzheimer’s Be Stopped.
It is one of the greatest medical mysteries of our time, as the disease strikes at the core of what makes us human: our capacity to think, to love and to remember.
This film includes what researchers are doing to find a cure and the role people play in participating in clinical trials.
Lenore Jackson-Pope and Carolyn King will take questions and answers from the audience.
