GSA Forum: Connecting Health Care, Public Health, and Community for Dementia Detection and Care is an interactive, application-focused experience that brings together researchers, clinicians, and community-based organizations. In this inaugural GSA Forum, faculty will highlight exemplary initiatives and creative solutions to promote brain health and improve dementia detection and care.

Moderated by Drs. Soo Borson and Joshua Chodosh, this live forum brings together clinicians, researchers, public health professionals, and industry leaders to explore practical, real-world approaches to improving dementia diagnosis and care.

Each session walks you through a step in the framework (kickstart, assess, evaluate, refer), using real-world case studies from health systems, community programs, and public health initiatives. You’ll leave with strategies that work, can be scaled, and are ready to implement. 

Participants will: 

• Gain practical skills to improve early detection, diagnosis, and connection to care
• Learn about innovative strategies to support brain health and improve dementia care in real-world clinical and community settings
• Hear what's working, what's scalable, and how to implement it in your own setting
• Engage with experts and peers across clinical care, research, and public health

Whether you are early in your career or a seasoned professional, this forum offers valuable insights to support better brain health outcomes through cross-sector collaboration.
