The University of Hong Kong (HKU) has established HKU Alzheimer’s Disease Research Network (HKUADR Network) of the SRT Aging, as one of the University Strategic Research Themes in 2008. The Network aims to enforce collaborative works in scientific research from public health to basic and clinical science. With the success of Alzheimer’s Disease Conference in years 2010, 2011 and 2012, we organize the fourth Conference this year to promote Alzheimer’s Disease research in Hong Kong.
In this “International Alzheimer’s Disease Conference 2014 – Theme “Early detection, Treatment & Prevention of dementia: Patients’ and caregivers’ Perspectives”, 13 distinguished overseas and 24 outstanding local scientists, clinicians, and caregivers’ charitable organisation leaders will share their experience in Alzheimer’s disease, from policy, psychosocial aspects in dementia and care giving, basic science, genetics, risk and protective factors and research in Alzheimer’s disease, to new drug and trials, imaging and biomarkers, treatment and prevention, alternative and Chinese medicine, and non-pharmacological and pharmacological interventions in Alzheimer’s disease. We can learn the experience from scientists and specialists all over the world and establish collaboration via this face-to-face scientific conference.
