Your Brain & Healthy Longevity: The Science, The Innovators and Collaboration Opportunities
June 4, 2020 - 9:30 am - 11:45 am
An aging population is forcing focus on neurodegenerative diseases. A combination of approaches from prevention, intervention and cure will require an increased understanding of the causes and the mechanisms of the degenerative process. Join us for a perspective on the latest approaches to keeping our brain function healthy as we age.
