Short Description: 

Presented by MindAlert, Sponsored by the MetLife Foundation

Full Description: 

While about half of people age 85+ years have Alzheimer’s disease, the other half do not, and this webinar will discuss these people that apparently have a resistance to dementia. Both environmental and genetic factors that clearly play a role in these dynamics will be discussed, particularly for those surviving beyond the age of 100 years.
