[In Context] Eric Reiman: aiming to prevent Alzheimer's disease

What will it take to prevent Alzheimer's disease by 2025? Eric Reiman, Executive Director of the Banner Alzheimer's Institute in Phoenix (Arizona, USA), has an answer. “It will take the right prevention trials, methods, and enrolment strategies to rapidly test, find and approve prevention therapies in people at genetic or biomarker risk. It will take shared urgency, courage and commitment, new collaborative models, and extensive data sharing. It will take a mult i-faceted approach to optimise availability, affordability, and appropriate use of treatments.
