The Research Forgot Women. Alzheimer’s Didn’t.

The Research Forgot Women. Alzheimer’s Didn’t.

This week's episode explores the impact of Alzheimer's disease, on women in particular, and features insights from cognitive neurologist Dr. Neelum Aggarwal and personal stories from psychotherapist and author Leah Fisher, who herself has been diagnosed with Mild Cognitive Impairment with elevated Alzheimer's risk. The discussion covers risk factors, diagnosis challenges, and management strategies, emphasizing the importance of awareness and early intervention.

We'd like to thank the American Medical Women's Association and Eli Lilly & Co for sponsoring this episode.
