Dr. Paul Thompson discusses the Alzheimer's Disease Neuroimaging Initiative (ADNI), an imaging project that attempts to discover the best predictors and measures of Alzheimer's Disease. The hope is that a treatment or cure could be developed by better understanding what happens to the brain when it is diseased. He also discusses non-medical interventions that have been shown to help protect against Alzheimer's.
