MemoryCommons is envisioned as the authoritative site for dementia and cognitive function-related education for physicians, nurses, and other healthcare professionals. This web-based portal will serve as a single point of access for on-line CME and training programming related to prevention, diagnosis, treatment, and public health challenges of Alzheimer’s disease and related conditions, including the cognitive changes in aging, clinical differentiation of illnesses causing memory loss and dementia. Overall, MemoryCommons will serve as a national resource where physicians, physicians in training, and other healthcare professionals can easily participate in educational activities and self-assessment; find tools that can support their clinical care of the aging patient; and apply the latest medical advances to their practices.
