Addressing Inequality and Disparities
Vision
To address the issue of dementia on a global scale, we must find solutions in our collective experiences and expertise. This concerted effort will bring novel solutions to this challenging problem.
Strategy
As a behavioral neurologist, Charles cares for patients with a variety of cognitive disorders. He is also engaged in outreach to underserved communities that disproportionately suffer from dementia and neurocognitive diseases.
Motivation
Disparities in neurodegenerative disease and dementia will create a future public health crisis without solutions to address them. Charles seeks to better understand and eliminate these disparities through efforts with GBHI, thereby protecting the most vulnerable aging populations.
