Free Community Event: Whole Person Approaches to Brain Health

Join us for a special panel conversation with Theresa Allison, MD, M. Music, PhD, the Harris Fishbon Distinguished Professor in Clinical Translational Research in Aging at the San Francisco Campus for Jewish Living and UCSF.
Drawing on her unique background as a family physician, geriatrician, and ethnomusicologist, Dr. Allison will share how non‑pharmacological approaches such as music, spirituality, creativity, art, and social connection can play a powerful role in supporting people living with dementia and those who care for them.
Dr. Allison’s research centers on lived experience, identifying real-world, reproducible approaches to the care of older adults and people living with dementia. By listening to the voices of older adults and care partners, we can reshape how we think about aging and quality of life. This conversation will highlight how simple, human‑centered experiences can foster connection and support cognitive and emotional health throughout the aging journey.
