psypost.org

There are more than 5 million Americans living with Alzheimer's and that number is expected to grow to 14 million by 2050. So, there is a new study for those aged 50 and over to develop a picture of the disease and to help those with the early signs. Delmarva Public Radio's Don Rush talked with Jeffery Cummings, a professor of Neurology at Cleveland Clinic, Lerner College of Medicine, about a new survey called APT Web Study.

Don Rush is the News Director and Senior Producer of News and Public Affairs at Delmarva Public Media. An award-winning journalist, Don reports major local issues of the day, from sea level rise, to urban development, to the changing demographics of Delmarva.
