Dementia Connect Bern
Connecting memory clinics and research institutes in Bern
The Dementia Connect Bern meeting brings together researchers and healthcare professionals to foster collaboration and exchange between research and clinical practice in Bern. It is co-organized by the Swiss Network for Dementia Research together with and from Inselspital Bern.
For researchers and interested participants, an optional and exclusive morning lecture will be offered prior to the scientific program. It will provide an overview of the diagnostic and therapeutic care pathway at the Memory Clinic. Through short presentations from different disciplines, participants will gain insight into how patients are assessed, discussed, and supported within an interdisciplinary framework.
