THE ALZHEIMER'S PROJECT
The National Institute on Aging/NIH and the Alzheimer's Association are collaborating with HBO Documentary Films in presenting THE ALZHEIMER'S PROJECT, a multi-platform (television, web, DVD, and print) public health series which takes a look at groundbreaking scientific discoveries and seeks to bring a wider public understanding of Alzheimer's disease research and care.
THE ALZHEIMER'S PROJECT is centered on a four-part documentary film series -- on science and research, children touched by Alzheimer’s, and two films focused on people with the disease and their caregivers. The series debuted May 10-12 on HBO. All films are available to view free at www.hbo.com/alzheimers. |
