"We gotta get people walking in this journey - YOU, ME, everybody talking comfortably without reservation." Take a moment to listen and reflect. Thank you @rogerdoger991 for sharing your perspective on Silence & Stigma regarding dementia.

Really interesting talk about the selection bias within trials… in particular with percentage of participants with higher education in a trial … they are more likely to take part…. But do they have more cognitive reserve? How biased then are the results! #ADI2022

Really important point Kate Swaffer has just made!!! The experience of the vast majority of people who have a diagnosis of dementia is that the diagnosis itself was such a negative experience!!! It’s not a great diagnosis… but surely we can give them hope!?! #ADI2022

Hey Twitter đź‘‹, DAC is heading to San Diego for #AAIC22! DAC is uniting the global community to end #Alzheimers and reverse an ugly trend: there will be 3x as many people living with dementia in 2050 unless we find solutions. Will you also be at AAIC?

It’s how calm, measured and accepting you were, that struck me. Your fighting spirit and sweet soul. Despite all you’d been through and the uncertainty ahead. I’ll never forget you, Josan Sutherland. May your soul rest peacefully. You’ve earned it.
