Is Alzheimer’s disease preventable? Professor Kaarin Anstey, Feb 2011


Professor Kaarin Anstey addresses the question, “Is Alzheimer’s disease preventable?” in a public lecture for the Australian Association of Gerontology. The event was held at the CSIRO Discovery Centre on 17 February 2011. Professor Anstey’s presentation begins with background on Alzheimer’s disease and dementia, then focuses on the risk factors for Alzheimer’s disease and the scientific evidence for each. She evaluates six categories of risk factors: demographic factors, genes, medical conditions, lifestyle factors, toxic exposures, and psychosocial factors. Professor Kaarin Anstey is Director of the DCRC – Early Diagnosis and Prevention, Director of the Ageing Research Unit at the Centre for Mental Health Research, and an NHMRC Senior Research Fellow. She completed her PhD in cognitive ageing in 1997 and undertook an NHMRC Training Fellowship at Flinders University and Neuroscience Research Australia from 1998-2001. Her research interests include the epidemiology of cognitive decline and dementia, depression in late life, predictors of longevity, psychological well being, driving and mobility, and longitudinal methods. She is the Principal Investigator on an NHMRC Strategic Grant on Ageing Well Ageing Productively that involves pooling 9 longitudinal ageing studies to model health and ageing.

    Many people think that marijuana kills braincells, i shall prove you wrong.?

    All of you who believe this sh** are being fooled by the government. Learn the truth. Seriously, most of the war on drugs is full of bullsh** paid for by the government. If you really want to know go to wikipedia and search about weed. There is no scientifical evidence to support what the government says about it killing brain cells. There is no reason that kids are getting lied to about such a wonderful plant. Those commercials that have your brain on drugs by frying an egg in a pan is tottally opposite of what happens to your brain. A posative from smoking reefer would be the prevention of alzheimers disease. Go to www.norml.org www.erowid.org and do some research on the subject instead of believing the Corruption of the government, who will do anything for money. RISE UP, BELIEVE THE TRUTH. dont fall for the lies!
