Improving Alzheimer’s Diagnosis and Care for Adults with Down Syndrome: Opportunities and Challenges for Families and Clinicians

Join the Stanford University School of Medicine, Stanford Alzheimer’s Disease Research Center (ADRC), and National Task Group for Intellectual Disabilities and Dementia Practices (NTG) for a panel about Down syndrome and Alzheimer’s Disease.

Dr. Brian Chicoine, Dr. Seth Keller, and Amy Kolb-Tucker will discuss the barriers that adults with Down syndrome face in Alzheimer’s diagnosis/treatment, such as lack of access to knowledgeable healthcare providers. They will also provide practical tips and opportunities for families and healthcare providers to navigate and begin to address those barriers.
