Brain Health Starts with Brain Care: A Scalable Solution to the Pandemic of Age-Related Brain Disease
–
Jonathan Rosand, MD, is founder of the Global Brain Care Coalition (GBCC), an international learning health care system providing people with tools to take action in caring for their brains — making proactive, evidence-based brain care simple and accessible to communities worldwide.
Rethinking Mental Health Across the Lifespan: Gaps and the Promise of Mechanistic Precision in Treatment
–
UTD Associate Professor Stacie Warren, PhD, investigates why rates of anxiety and depression are rising amid widely available evidence-based treatments, citing recent large-scale studies showing that “gold standard” therapies are not equally effective for everyone, especially youth.
MRI Biomarkers for Vascular Cognitive Impairment and Dementia
–
Brain imaging provides an important opportunity for diagnosis, prognosis and treatment monitoring in vascular cognitive impairment and dementia (VCID). In this talk, Dr. Hanzhang Lu discusses a potential framework of biomarkers for the classification of vascular cognitive impairment and dementia (VCID), specifically describing cerebrovascular reactivity (CVR), an important physiological parameter of vascular health, as a candidate biomarker in small vessel disease related VCID.
