SUMMARY:Recognizing the Signs: Juli Chenault’s Diagnosis Journey
DESCRIPTION:Recognizing the Signs: Juli Chenault’s Diagnosis Journey\nThis interview is brought to you in partnership with Eisai and is part of the Journey to Diagnosis series. \nJuli Chenault first began noticing memory changes in 2008 while working as a business representative and traveling regularly across Kentucky. One of the first warning signs came when she could not remember how to get to an apartment she had visited many times and had to call her supervisor for help. After raising concerns about her memory with her primary care doctor and undergoing further evaluation\, Chenault was diagnosed with early-stage dementia in her early 50s. Her mother had also lived with Alzheimer’s disease. \nSince her diagnosis\, she has remained committed to managing her health\, staying on medication\, and keeping her mind active. The support of her family has played a central role\, both in recognizing the early changes and in helping her move forward. \nJoin us Thursday\, May 7\, at 11 a.m. PT / 2 p.m. ET for a Live Talk with Chenault about noticing the first signs of cognitive change\, navigating the path to a diagnosis\, the importance of speaking up when something feels wrong\, and how family support can make a difference after diagnosis. \nRSVP to hear Juli Chenault’s story.

SUMMARY:Understanding Gender Differences in Alzheimer's Disease
DESCRIPTION:Understanding Gender Differences in Alzheimer’s Disease\nWhy do women make up two-thirds of Americans living with Alzheimer’s disease? The answer is more complex than many people realize. \nDr. Jessica Caldwell joins us to discuss how gender influences Alzheimer’s disease risk and resilience. She’ll explore what research is revealing about the roles of hormones\, genetics\, lifestyle factors\, and life stressors in driving these differences\, and what this growing understanding could mean for prevention — especially for women at midlife and beyond. \nCaldwell is a neuropsychologist and an investigator of the Wisconsin Registry for Alzheimer’s Prevention (WRAP) study at the Wisconsin Alzheimer’s Institute\, as well as a visiting associate professor in the Department of Neurology at UW–Madison. Her research focuses on sex and gender influences on Alzheimer’s disease risk and resilience. She previously directed the Women’s Alzheimer’s Movement Prevention Center at Cleveland Clinic\, the world’s first Alzheimer’s prevention center designed exclusively for women.  \nJoin us Friday\, May 8\, at 11 a.m. PT / 2 p.m. ET for a Live Talk with Caldwell about why Alzheimer’s disease affects women and men differently — and what can be done about it. \nRSVP to join the conversation. \n
