The role of neuropsychology in the age of Alzheimer’s disease biomarkers and disease-modifying therapies


2.0 Hours CE Credit | Intermediate Level

Learning Objectives

  1. Learn to identify neuropsychological measures and clinical indicators that support early detection of probable Alzheimer’s disease pathology.
