 g candid\, 30-minute interviews with leading experts\, Claire Webster\, Fo
 under of the 91ɬÂþ Dementia Education Program\, explores topics related t

 s and the Brain: From Diagnosis to Digital Innovation\n\nÉtienne de Viller
 s-Sidani\, MDCM\, FRCP(C)\, is a neurologist\, neuroscientist\, and entrep
 reneur\, and Director of the Cognitive Disorders Clinic at The Neuro (Mont
 real Neurological Institute-Hospital). He is also an associate professor i
 n the Department of Neurology and Neurosurgery at 91ɬÂþ. His r
 esearch focuses on how aging and neurological disorders affect brain funct
 ion\, and on developing innovative strategies\, including brain training a
 nd digital biomarkers\, to preserve and restore cognitive health. A centra
 l focus of his work is the use of eye movement biomarkers for the early de
 tection and monitoring of neurological conditions such as multiple scleros
 is\, Alzheimer’s disease\, and Parkinson’s disease. As founder of Innodem 
 Neurosciences\, he is committed to bringing these technologies into clinic
 al practice to improve access to high-quality neurological care.\n\nDuring
  this episode of 91ɬÂþ Cares\, Dr. de Villers-Sidani will explore multipl
 e sclerosis (MS)\, one of the most common neurological diseases affecting 
 young adults in Canada. He will explain how MS impacts the brain over time
 \, including its effects on cognition\, and how it can sometimes resemble 
 other conditions such as Alzheimer’s disease. He will also discuss emergin
 g innovations in neurological monitoring\, including how simple eye moveme
 nt tests performed on a tablet can detect subtle changes in brain function
 . These approaches offer new and accessible ways to track disease progress
 ion in real time. Throughout the talk\, he will highlight how informed and
  empowered patients can play a central role in improving their own care an
 d outcomes.\n\nThis free webcast will be offered in both ENGLISH and FRENC
