World Brain Day 2022

On Wednesday, July 20th, Dr. Silke Appel-Cresswell and the BC Brain Wellness Program hosted our annual celebration of World Brain Day! The World Federation of Neurology has selected the theme "Brain Health for All", which aligns with our vision and mission at the Brain Wellness Program.

Please join us to learn from keynote speaker Dr. Roger Wong and his research and approaches surrounding dementia care and enjoy a special presentation from BWP Co-Founder, Dr. Silke Appel-Cresswell on lifestyle interventions from promoting brain health for all.

We were also joined by participants of the BWP who shared the impact of participating in our Intergenerational Program as well as how the BWP supports brain health for all through the lens of one of our BWP families including a participant, a care partner, and health ager.
