Many people living with #Lewybodydementia (LBD) also have Alzheimer's disease (AD) pathology — the amyloid plaques and tau tangles associated with AD — in their brains at the same time.

Join us for “The Alzheimer’s Connection: Co-Pathology in Lewy Body Dementia” on September 24 at 1:00pm ET to find the answer.
