Personal Hero
Neil deGrasse Tyson
Words of Strength
Innovative thinking, sharing ideas
Vision
Marius believes the key is knowledge, therefore we need to increase public awareness. At the same time, he thinks we need a better understanding of disease mechanisms and this is why we should invest in the research of dementia.
Strategy
Marius is currently working on the development of home-care networks at the national level. He thinks the provision of home-care services to dementia patients could increase their independence and would lead to better outcomes in healthcare.
Impact
Communication is key and dissemination is the interactive process of spreading knowledge. As an Atlantic Fellow, Marius hopes to learn how to reach the target audience with the right message.
Motivation
Dementia-related issues gain more public interest each year in Lithuania. The common understanding that integrated health services could provide specific help to individuals enables effective decision making.
