Description

For the first time in history, there will soon be more older adults than children in the U.S., and rates of dementia are climbing.

Neuropsychologist Dr. Rosie Curiel Cid has developed a groundbreaking cognitive test capable of detecting the earliest signs of Alzheimer’s disease, long before symptoms appear.

In this episode, she explains how early diagnosis can change everything, opening the door to new FDA-approved treatments that can slow the disease’s progression and transform how we approach brain health.
