Demystifying Lewy Body Dementia: Women in the Spotlight
The Lewy Body Dementia Association (LBDA) is proud to present "Demystifying Lewy Body Dementia: Women in the Spotlight."
Although sex and gender play an important role, the experiences of women often do not get adequate representation in Lewy body dementia (LBD) research.
In this webinar featuring Dr. Ece Bayram, PhD, we discussed what women experience in the LBD community and how women's experiences can advance our understanding of the disease.
