Advancements in dementia research, diagnostics, and care in Latin America: Highlights from the 2023 Alzheimer's Association International conference satellite symposium in Mexico City
Resumen:
Introduction: While Latin America (LatAm) is facing an increasing burden of dementia due to the rapid aging of the population, it remains underrepresented in dementia research, diagnostics, and care. Methods: In 2023, the Alzheimer's Association hosted its eighth satellite symposium in Mexico, highlighting emerging dementia research, priorities, and challenges within LatAm. Results: Significant initiatives in the region, including intracountry support, showcased their efforts in fostering national and international collaborations; genetic studies unveiled the unique genetic admixture in LatAm; researchers conducting emerging clinical trials discussed ongoing culturally specific interventions; and the urgent need to harmonize practices and studies, improve diagnosis and care, and use affordable biomarkers in the region was highlighted. Discussion: The myriad of topics discussed at the 2023 AAIC satellite symposium highlighted the growing research efforts in LatAm, providing valuable insights into dementia biology, genetics, epidemiology, treatment, and care.

of dementia due to the rapid aging of the population, it remains underrepresented in dementia research, diagnostics, and care. Methods: In 2023, the Alzheimer's Association hosted its eighth satellite symposium in Mexico, highlighting emerging dementia research, priorities, and challenges within LatAm. Results: Significant initiatives in the region, including intracountry support, showcased their efforts in fostering national and international collaborations; genetic studies unveiled the unique genetic admixture in LatAm; researchers conducting emerging clinical trials discussed ongoing culturally specific interventions; and the urgent need to harmonize practices and studies, improve diagnosis and care, and use affordable biomarkers in the region was highlighted. Discussion: The myriad of topics discussed at the 2023 AAIC satellite symposium highlighted the growing research efforts in LatAm, providing valuable insights into dementia biology, genetics, epidemiology, treatment, and care.Submitted by Almiñana María Cecilia (marialminana@gmail.com) on 2026-08-20T14:09:41Z No. of bitstreams: 2 license_rdf: 25630 bytes, checksum: e7132498e7c1fe99f7096667baa99b25 (MD5) Advancements in dementia research diagnostics and care in Latin America.pdf: 21001865 bytes, checksum: bff7defbfa3462de41bdcff6ea72501e (MD5)Approved for entry into archive by Almiñana María Cecilia (marialminana@gmail.com) on 2026-08-20T15:26:02Z (GMT) No. of bitstreams: 2 license_rdf: 25630 bytes, checksum: e7132498e7c1fe99f7096667baa99b25 (MD5) Advancements in dementia research diagnostics and care in Latin America.pdf: 21001865 bytes, checksum: bff7defbfa3462de41bdcff6ea72501e (MD5)Made available in DSpace by Luna Fabiana (fabiana.luna@seciu.edu.uy) on 2026-08-20T17:27:02Z (GMT).
