Summary
Extensive information on a large population of over 15,000 older Australians will be used to determine more precisely which factors increase or reduce the risk of developing dementia, and thus will provide valuable information on how to reduce the number of Australians with dementia. In parallel, this research will identify new ways to accurately diagnose dementia at an earlier stage, even before symptoms appear.
