Alzheimer Europe has signed a statement coordinated by the InRAD (International Registry for Alzheimer’s Disease and Other Dementias) Foundation, welcoming the approval of lecanemab in Europe and recognising the need to address questions surrounding its clinical use, including its safety and effectiveness in the real world.
On 23 May 2025, during the 78th World Health Assembly in Geneva (Switzerland), a six-year extension to the Global Action Plan on the Public Health Response to Dementia was adopted. This followed a recommendation adopted by the Executive Board of the World Health Organization (WHO) in February of this year.
Alzheimer Europe has newly launched a public opinion poll examining attitudes towards dementia research participation and data sharing. This poll is part of a broader initiative, which aims to understand motivators and barriers to dementia research participation and data sharing. We would appreciate your support!
