McGill Cares - The Latest Research on Alzheimer’s Disease

McGill Cares: Join us as we celebrate the 100th episode of McGill Cares

Release Date: 12/12/2023

Description: McGill Cares was launched by the Dementia Education Program during the early days of the COVID-19 pandemic, on May 13, 2020, while many of us were isolating at home. Claire Webster, Founder of the Program, had the idea to record short interviews with different experts on topics of interest to care partners of people living with neurocognitive disorders to help educate and support them during this difficult time.  On November 15, 2023, we aired the 100th episode of McGill Cares! Dr. José Morais, Dr. Serge Gauthier, Dr. Pedro Rosa-Neto and Claire Webster looked at highlights from the past three years and answered questions.   If you were not able to join us for the live webcast, it was recorded and is posted here and on our website to listen to or view at your convenience, like all past episodes of McGill Cares.  Since launching McGill Cares, we have had over 70,000 views of our free online webcasts. Thank you for being an important part of our success.  Original air date: Nov. 15, 2023 ______________________________________________   McGill Cares is supported by the Amelia Saputo Community Outreach for Dementia Care.  McGill Cares is an initiative of the McGill Dementia Education Program, which is funded by private donations.
