Australian Dementia Research Forum

The Australian Dementia Research Forum is the premier annual event that brings together dementia researchers health professionals and policy makers as well as people living with dementia and their families and carers to discuss the latest research innovations and best practices in dementia. Following the success of last year’s conference we are pleased to announce that this year’s Forum (ADRF2024) will again be held in person on the sunny Gold Coast Queensland from 3rd to 5th June.

​

The theme for the ADRF2024 is Turning the Tide on Dementia with particular focus on exciting new innovations in the field. The Forum is a meeting place for national and global experts to share the latest developments in dementia research care and policy and to challenge perceptions of living with or caring for someone with a dementia diagnosis.

​

Five expert international and national speakers have been invited to deliver keynote addresses at ADRF2024 on topics spanning monoclonal antibodies exercise physiology neuroimaging molecular causes of tauopathy in Alzheimer’s disease and dementia prevalence in specific communities. This year for the first time we specifically highlight the work and warmly welcome our colleagues in Asia and New Zealand to feature as a key part of the program.

​

For a second consecutive year our Continuing Education professional development sessions for medical health and care practitioners will be on offer. Held on Day 1 of the Forum topics will include risk reduction pathways for care deprescribing post-diagnostic support and anti-amyloid therapies.
