The UVA School of Medicine recently launched Memory Commons, a new website focused on research, diagnosis and patient management for people affected by Alzheimer’s Disease and dementia.
Memory Commons will add to other resources devoted to Alzheimer’s research by UVA, with educational tools such as tutorials, cases and blogs, among others. The site, according to a UVA release, will open during the International Conference on Alzheimer’s Disease in Honolulu.
Steven DeKosky, dean of the School of Medicine, is a leading scholar in Alzheimer’s research. C-VILLE recognized him in the 2010 Fame Yearbook as a star in his field.
