HEALTHY AGING THROUGH HOLISTIC BRAIN HEALTH:
The Dementia Prevention Initiative Annual Meeting

Join us for our Annual Meeting as we explore Holistic Brain Health, the key to well-being, healthy aging, and the future of dementia prevention.

Wednesday, November 29, 2023
8:00 am - 4:30 pm
DSB 1002

Although the number of cases of dementia is rising, we showed that in Ontario the incidence (cases per 1,000) has decreased.

The Weston Brain Institute is funding our project to examine environmental, socioeconomic, and individual risk factors to explain why and make cost-effective recommendations about dementia prevention.

The meeting will feature a progress report and a plan to develop an ABC of holistic brain health to identify the least that can be adopted by the most and begin planning the motivation and implementation phases in preparation for a major grant application: “Healthy Aging Through Holistic Brain Health.”
