The Science of Dementia Prevention is Rapidly Evolving
Why PACo?
Scientific advancements now provide the tools to take more control.
Background
As life expectancy rises and the Baby Boomer generation ages, dementia prevalence continues to increase, highlighting the importance of prevention research. Many people fear this outcome, often after witnessing a loved one suffer from Alzheimer’s disease or a related neurodegenerative condition. While these fears are understandable, scientific advancements now provide tools that may help individuals better understand and manage dementia risk.
Advances in Alzheimer's Research & Prevention
Addressing key modifiable risk factors—such as physical inactivity, hypertension, diabetes, and social isolation—could prevent up to about half of all dementia cases.
Certain lifestyle and health factors can influence long-term brain health, and by targeting these modifiable risks, individuals may reduce their likelihood of cognitive decline while supporting overall well-being.
"Scientific advancements now provide the tools to take more control."
This seminar moves beyond general advice to specific, evidence-based interventions that you can apply to your daily life immediately.

Landmark Studies
The FINGER Study
A landmark trial that found a multidomain lifestyle intervention can improve our brain health and prevent cognitive decline.
The Lancet Commission Report
Findings from this influential report reveals that roughly 40–50% of dementia cases are preventable through attention to modifiable risk factors across the lifespan.
US POINTER Study
This landmark national trial led by the Alzheimer’s Association demonstrates that a practical, multidomain lifestyle program can preserve cognitive function and promote brain health.
