DESCRIPTION:By Edith Hamel (Professor\, Department of Neurology and Neurosu
 rgery\, Montreal Neurological Institute\, 9I制作厂免费)\n\nEveryone k
 nows about Alzheimer鈥檚 disease\, but maybe we do not know as well that car
 diovascular disease and diabetes are the main risk factors for developing 
 Alzheimer鈥檚 disease and cognitive deficits with increasing age. This is im
 portant as it is possible to control quite well cardiovascular disease wit
 h medications and good life style habits. The lecture will present researc
 h performed in animal models of Alzheimer鈥檚 disease and vascular dementia 
 treated with drugs used in man to control cardiovascular disease and how t
 hese treatments improve memory. Additionally\, we will discuss the benefit
 s of physical exercise. The lecture should provide a scientific basis for 
 the urge of proactively controlling cardiovascular health with the ultimat
 e goal of protecting brain health.\n\nAbout the Speaker: 聽Edith Hamel is a
