Episode 78: Alzheimer's Research: A focus on Black African American Women
In this month’s episode of Let’s Talk Caregiving, Roberto and Marta sit down with Dr. Michelle Jackson, director at Point Loma Nazarene University, to explore health equity, dementia research, and the lived experiences of Black women at risk for Alzheimer’s. Dr. Jackson shares the goals of her groundbreaking community-based research study—BWITS (Black Women Inflammation and Tau Study)—and why culturally sensitive, accessible programs are crucial in both advancing dementia science and supporting family caregivers. The conversation dives deep into stigma, stress, trust in healthcare, and how community partnerships are transforming the future of dementia care.Keywords: dementia research, health equity, Alzheimer's, caregiving stress, community-based care
