Research Institute for Aging
Offsite Tour-October 30 
 
 
We toured the Research Institute on Aging at the Schlegel University Gates site.  We learned about the various ways research is being done on the cause and effects of dementia.  We also learned how advances are being made in helping people with dementia to live safely and productively while coping with the disease.  
 
A luncheon followed the RIA tour.
