Contact information for the PREVENT-Alzheimer study

Research team of the PREVENT-Alzherimer Program.  

The goal of the PREVENT-AD program is to study memory and brain changes in healthy people over the age of 60.

To date, there is no known cure for Alzheimer's Disease. Current drug treatments offer modest symptom relief, but none of the medications is known to delay or halt the progression of the disease.

McGill and the Douglas have joined hands to create the StoP-AD Centre dedicated to the prevention of AD.
