Language Difficulties in Normal Aging and Dementia

Join us on June 22, 2022, at noon for the next McGill Cares webcast to support informal caregivers. During candid, 30-minute interviews with leading experts, Claire Webster explores topics related to caring for a loved one with dementia. Paoli Vitali, MD is a board-certified neurologist and neuropsychologist and an Assistant Professor at McGill University’s Department of Neurology and Neurosurgery in the Faculty of Medicine and Health Sciences. He is a neurologist at the McGill University Research Centre for Studies in Aging and at the CIUSSS Ouest-de-l’Île-de-Montréal. His research focuses on atypical dementia patients who present with language disorders (Primary Progressive Aphasia). Dr. Vitali will speak about language difficulties in normal aging and in dementia, explaining how they differ and why they occur. He will also discuss the potential impact of current research on treatment options. This episode of McGill Cares will also be available in French. ____________________________ McGill Cares is an initiative of the McGill Dementia Education Program, which is funded by private donations.
