Listener Favorite: Lauren Miller Rogen on Facing a Parent's Early-Onset Alzheimer's Diagnosis


Listen Later

During this Thanksgiving week as we reflect on gratitude and family, we revisit one of our listener favorites from earlier this year. Drs. Daniel Correa and Audrey Nath reflect again on their conversation with actress, producer, and Alzheimer's advocate Lauren Miller Rogen. In this interview, Lauren shares her mother's journey with the condition and how her caretaker experience inspired her to found HFC, a foundation with the mission to provide care and resources for families affected by Alzheimer's. Then, Dr. Nath speaks with Dr. Irina Skylar-Scott, a behavioral neurologist at Stanford University. Dr. Skylar-Scott provides listeners with additional information on the condition and tips on maintaining a healthy brain.
