Topic: Cerebrovascular Aging<\/p>\n
Speakers:<\/p>\n
Anna Csiszar, MD, PhD<\/p>\n
Learning Objectives:<\/p>\n
1. Identify major structural and functional differences between young and aged cerebrovasculature.<\/p>\n
2. Recognize the mechanisms how aging of the brains vasculature can contribute to the development of cognitive impairment.<\/p>\n
3. Apply new interventional strategies tailored for older populations.<\/p>\n
Professional Practice Gap:<\/p>\n
Current State: Neither dementia research (primarily Alzheimers Disease) nor stroke research could develop a major new drug target in the last 2 decades. One of the reasons is that the current research endeavors are focused on young preclinical models with intact function and repair capacity.Desired State: New models are needed to better understand the age-dependency and complexity of chronic, age-related diseases.<\/p>\n
