MedConnect | Putting the brakes on dementia

Join Tegan Taylor as she talks to Graeme Samuel and Stephanie Ward about how we can take action against this cruel disease. About this event: One in five of us who reach late middle age can expect to develop dementia. It’s the leading cause of death in women in Australia and the second leading cause of death overall. And currently, there is no cure. Join our host ABC journalist Tegan Taylor as she talks to the chair of the Dementia Australia Board Professor Graeme Samuel, and geriatrician Dr Stephanie Ward, UNSW Senior Research Fellow from the Centre for Healthy Brain Ageing (CHeBA) about the challenges imposed by this disease. Without a medical breakthrough, dementia will cost the economy $6 billion this year in healthcare and loss of productivity. And that number is set to triple by 2050. What can we, as researchers, clinicians, employees, loved ones and the community, do in the battle to tackle it? Hear some of the world’s leading experts discussing what you and your loved ones can do to help put the brakes on this cruel and debilitating disease.
