VIDEO: Men and women living into their nineties are the fastest growing segment in the US population. What determines who will make it into their 90s, and in what condition? The "90+" research study is hoping to find out. Learn more. (Video)

Researchers in California are studying a group of residents in Laguna Hills Village, a senior living and retirement community southwest of Los Angeles, who are living into their nineties and beyond.

With experience in dementia caregiving, public education, and Alzheimer’s-focused writing—and a professional research background shaped in what many consider one of the world’s top laboratories—I work to make complex findings clear, practical, and genuinely helpful for families and professionals providing care.

This site was inspired by my Mom’s autoimmune dementia.

It is a place where we separate out the wheat from the chafe, the important articles & videos from each week’s river of news. Google gets a new post on Alzheimer’s or dementia every 7 minutes. That can overwhelm anyone looking for help. This site filters out, focuses on and offers only the best information. it has helped hundreds of thousands of people since it debuted in 2007. Thanks to our many subscribers for your supportive feedback.

The site is dedicated to all those preserving the dignity of the community of people living with dementia.
