About Alzheimer Day

Join us for the 30th Annual Alzheimer Day on Friday, May 3, 2024 in the Feinberg Pavilion Conference Center on Northwestern University's Chicago campus. Northwestern Alzheimer Day was established to showcase Alzheimer's related dementia and aging research conducted throughout Northwestern and to bring this information to the community.

Attendees will have the opportunity to connect with community members and researchers over lunch and through the presentation of research posters.
