She announces the transfer of all assets—content and branding—to the Penn Memory Center, where work will continue in making our learnings available to all who need them.

	<description><![CDATA[What happens when we reach the end of our journey, when we are confronted with grief and loss, while the burden of caregiving is relieved? In this episode, two caregivers share their stories: Judith Johanson, in her multiple roles at the Alzheimer’s Disease Research Center and Gerontology Research Unit, and Katie Brandt, Director of Caregiver Support Services and Public Relations for the Frontotemporal Disorders Unit, both at Massachusetts General Hospital. They discuss how they chose to stay connected with the field after their journeys of care, the balance of grief and joy and, in Katie’s words, “how love is the bridge from so many yesterdays to brand-new tomorrows.” Judy speaks to how she was able to “move forward with hope and anticipation while carrying the treasures we have amassed from our cherished memories.”]]></description>

	<description><![CDATA[With the availability of anti-amyloid therapies, accurate diagnosis and staging of Alzheimer’s disease becomes ever more important, as does the need to monitor response to treatment. Faster, less expensive, and more accessible blood-based biomarkers, a long-standing goal for the medical research community, are now on the horizon. Dr. Steven E. Arnold, Massachusetts General Hospital, explains why accuracy and reliability of results are key criteria for their widespread use, and the importance of the health care provider in interpreting test results and giving them context. Looking into the future, Dr. Arnold suggests that the greatest promise of blood-based biomarkers may be in the prevention of Alzheimer’s disease, through early detection before symptoms appear. He also outlines ongoing efforts to identify and understand markers of other disease mechanisms such as inflammation, oxidative stress, vascular injury, and nutrient levels.]]></description>

Felicia Greenfield, MSW, LCSW, describes a case study and urges our listeners to navigate caregiving while prioritizing mental health and well-being. She recommends a combination of self-care practices—such as meditation, exercise, spending time with family—and a willingness to ask for help in caring as well as in maintaining one’s own mental health. In her words, “It’s never too late to start caring for yourself.”]]></description>

Dr. Arnold notes that with new, highly sensitive and specific lab reagents and technologies, we can now detect the extremely low levels of tau, amyloid, and some other brain proteins that are produced in Alzheimer’s disease and leak out into the bloodstream. And in the search for new treatments for Alzheimer’s disease, biomarkers play an important role in expanding our understanding of the disease and enabling us to measure whether a new drug or other treatment is working.]]></description>

She recalls how the diagnosis, painful as it was, opened the door to getting support and receiving the care that Bob needed to live well despite the many challenges they faced together. In her words, “As I watch people around me put off their testing, I wish I knew how to tell them that there is so much more to gain than to lose. Knowledge is power, even when knowing hurts.”]]></description>

	<description><![CDATA[Noting that non-pharmacological approaches to care are considered the gold standard in caring for people living with dementia today, Felicia Greenfield explains the concept of person-centered care, what it is, and how to go about delivering it. Felicia cites the seminal work on dementia by scholar Tom Kitwood, who highlights relationship, uniqueness, and embodiment as the elements of personhood, or sense of self. She highlights the commonalties among models and practices of person-centered care, and shares six recommendations for delivering it. These include: really knowing the person with dementia—the unique and whole person; recognizing and accepting the person’s reality; identifying and supporting ongoing opportunities for meaningful engagement; nurturing and building authentic and caring relationships; maintaining a supportive community; and evaluating care practices regularly, making appropriate changes as needed.]]></description>

	<description><![CDATA[Dr. Steven Arnold explains the underlying causes of dementia, some of which are treatable, and outlines the process for arriving at a diagnosis. He offers an overview of recent developments in anti-amyloid immunotherapies. He puts amyloid and tau—and the presence of plaques and tangles—in perspective as he explains what we know about Alzheimer’s disease today. According to Dr. Arnold, data from amyloid immunotherapies tells us that Alzheimer’s dementia is driven by more than amyloid plaques and tau tangles. He suggests that for people with dementia, our most effective treatment at present is good care, and that lifestyle and diet changes can help optimize brain function for everyone.]]></description>

Additionally, Dr. Karlawish points out the importance of supportive decision making, and helping people in the early stages of the disease exercise their autonomy.]]></description>

Dr. Jacobs explains how male caregivers who keep their feelings buried inside tend to struggle more and eventually burn out, while others who allow themselves to experience their own feelings and understand these internal signals can prevail. He offers advice for adult children on ways they can support their father to make caregiving a shared experience.]]></description>

He suggests that risk factors such as hearing loss, head injuries, cardiovascular risk factors and tobacco use all increase our risk of developing dementia and probably drive progression. He also points out increasing evidence that depression, loneliness, and anxiety can increase our vulnerability to dementia, likely through stress mechanisms. He answers common questions about dietary supplements and natural products.]]></description>
