Each Kuopio Alzheimer Symposium has had a very interesting and rich program, and the speakers have been internationally acknowledged and respected leading experts on dementia research and care. The Kuopio Alzheimer Symposia have attracted every time on average 300 participants, who are PhD or MD-level researchers, clinicians, health care personnel, and students from Finland, other Nordic countries, and around the world. The symposium programs have been highly appreciated by the attendees.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This time, we are expecting an even higher number of congress participants to Kuopio since the 9<sup>th<\/sup> Alzheimer Symposium will be organized in parallel with the 3<sup>rd<\/sup> Nordic Memory Clinic Conference.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The forthcoming 9<sup>th<\/sup> Alzheimer Symposium and 3<sup>rd<\/sup> Nordic Memory Clinic Conference will continue the tradition of the previous symposia by focusing on the existing and emerging concepts in neurodegeneration and genetic and personalized medicine in Alzheimer\u2019s disease and other neurodegenerative diseases. In addition, prediction of Alzheimer\u2019s disease, update on biomarker studies, new progresses in co-morbidities related to Alzheimer\u2019s disease and other neurodegenerative diseases, clinical advances in prevention and therapy, and new insights from clinical and intervention studies will be covered.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The 9<sup>th<\/sup> Kuopio Alzheimer Symposium is organized by University of Eastern Finland, Institute of Clinical Medicine, Neurology, Institute of Biomedicine, and A.I.
