Dementia is Global by Global Brain Health Institute

More than 50 million people around the world are living with dementia and by 2050 that number could rise to 152 million. The scale of the disease threatens to overwhelm families, communities, public health care systems, and economies. Based at the University of California, San Francisco and Trinity College, Dublin, the Global Brain Health Institute, through the Atlantic Fellows for Equity in Brain Health program, is tackling this looming epidemic by working to improve brain health and dementia care. In this Dementia is Global podcast series, Fionnuala Sweeney speaks to a wide range of people working in the dementia field. She hears from those directly impacted by dementia and learns what's being done to combat it.
