Recently the American Society on Aging, AARP, and the Alzheimer's Association conducted public opinion surveys seeking to understand public perception of brain health, Alzheimer's disease, activities to preserve cognitive health or activities people currently do that either knowingly or purposefully protect brain function. The information gleaned from public polls helps us better understand how to best inform the public about maintaining brain health with carefully crafted messages that give hope but do not over promise.
This session was presented and taped at the ASA – NCOA 2007 Joint Conference. This archived web cast highlights the three speakers as they present findings from surveys, discuss the implications of each, present each organization's brain health promotion programs and address next steps in the science and in building community brain health resources
