Discover a groundbreaking webinar delving into multifaceted strategies aimed at enhancing diversity within the realm of Alzheimer’s disease (AD) research. Addressing significant challenges rooted in the widespread lack of trust within diverse patient populations, the featured speakers forge collaborative efforts with advocacy groups, who serve as crucial bridges between the healthcare system and the communities they serve. Going beyond conventional screening practices, these strategies also involve extensive examination of medical records and employ a diverse array of tactics to identify potential patients who might otherwise go unnoticed.
Innovation plays a pivotal role in not only tracking and reporting progress but also in educating these underrepresented patient populations. This webinar involves the open exchange of ideas, acknowledging that the path to solutions is neither instantaneous nor linear. Ultimately, this comprehensive approach encapsulates the principles of diversity, equity and inclusion (DE&I), serving as a model for advancing equitable access to Alzheimer’s research.
Join this webinar in shaping a future where diversity is the cornerstone of progress in Alzheimer’s research.
