Episode 15: Healthy Intersections Podcast: Alzheimer's Disease & Related Dementias
June is Alzheimer's Awareness Month. To recognize the importance of brain health, we hosted a round-table discussion between Dr. Lisa Lines, principal investigator for the RTI Rarity project (RTIRarity.io); Chloe McGlynn, a research public health analyst at RTI; Dr. Vicki Johnson-Lawrence, social epidemiologist and community-based participatory researcher at RTI; and Dr. Jazmyne McNeese, an expert on race, wealth, and business ownership and senior data analyst at PolicyMap (PolicyMap.com). We discuss disparities in the prevalence of Alzheimer's Disease & Related Dementias, or ADRD, and explore some of the top modifiable risk factors for ADRD. We share ideas for improving access to care for people with ADRD and show how prevalence, and some of the top predictors, are distributed across the US.
