Join us for our annual Alzheimer Day as we return to a fully in-person event. Northwestern Alzheimer Day was established to showcase Alzheimer’s research conducted throughout Northwestern and to bring this information to the community. Attendees will have the opportunity to connect with community members, and researchers over lunch and through the presentation of research posters.
Â
Following the Poster Session and Lunch, Dr. Lisa Barnes will provide our Mendelson Lecture. The afternoon session will include a celebration of the Glen & Wendy Miller Family Buddy Program’s 25 year history.
