Did you know that as our population ages, the number of Canadians living with dementia is expected to reach nearly 1 million individuals by 2030?
I want you to know that we recently announced more funding to support these important brain health research and innovation initiatives.
The Centre for Aging + Brain Health Innovation (CABHI) to help speed up innovation in aging and brain health.
The Brain Health and Cognitive Impairment in Aging (BHCIA) Research Initiative to support the latest areas of research on the brain.
We must do everything we can to accelerate innovation in aging and brain health so that older adults can age safely in the setting of their choice while maintaining their cognitive, emotional, and physical well-being.
It’s through initiatives like these, that we are contributing to a better quality of life for older adults, their families, and caregivers.
