Through education, collaboration, and support

About the Dementia Care Collaborative

The Collaborative was created to educate and support patients, caregivers, healthcare providers, and the community. Dedicated team members offer opportunities for learning and connecting across the hospital and into the community at large, with the goals of teaching new ways of understanding dementia, how to best communicate and partner with those living with dementia and to offer support and guidance for caregivers to feel empowered to foster their own wellbeing and resilience.

Sleep and the Importance of Brain Health

December 16, 2025 - EST

In this session, we’ll talk about why getting a good night’s sleep is important for your brain. Sleep helps clear away a protein called amyloid, which can build up and is linked to Alzheimer’s disease. We’ll look at research showing how sleep can help keep your brain healthy

Jasmeer Chhatwal earned his MD and PhD in Neuroscience from Emory University. His research focuses on improving imaging biomarkers for Alzheimer’s Disease (AD), and applying functional and molecular imaging techniques to study how targeted network degeneration in AD leads to memory loss.
