" The 100th anniversary of Alzheimer’s disease "

2007 marks the 100th anniversary of Alzheimer’s disease. Many works have been done to cure this disease, but it was not enough to support for those daunting number of the Baby Boom Generation.
International Association of Gerontology and Geriatrics have issued the statement on Alzheimer’s disease to raise awareness on the issue as well as assess what have been done and have to be done in face of the aged society. In light of this movement, the Research Institute of Science for the Better Living of the Elderly will promote its Social Drama which describes the affect of dementia on the patient and her family caused by Alzheimer’s disease. 2007 is the turning point for our institute, too. The 2007 Namhae Active Aging Conference in Asia Pacific is to be held from May 16(Wed) to 18(Fri) and we’re happy to hold our conference at this important time.
