The Solomon Carter Fuller Brain Health Brunch is an annual event that aims to build awareness of Alzheimer’s disease in the African American community. The event was organized by the Wisconsin Alzheimer’s Disease Research Center and the African Americans Fighting Alzheimer’s in Midlife (AA-FAIM) study.
The educational event is named after Dr. Solomon Carter Fuller, the first African American psychiatrist and a pioneer in the field of Alzheimer’s disease research. Dr. Fuller worked closely with Dr. Alois Alzheimer in Germany in the early 1900s and wrote some of the earliest and most comprehensive scientific papers published in English about dementia.
Keynote Speaker: Dr. Thomas Karikari, assistant professor, University of Gothenburg, University of Pittsburgh Alzheimer's Disease Research Center
