Lloyd Jackson spotlights Dr. Alfred Mansour, clinical neuropsychologist at Neuropsychology Partners, who is helping lead the charge toward early detection and proactive treatment. Through comprehensive neuropsychological testing and advanced imaging, Dr. Mansour emphasizes that identifying cognitive changes early opens the door to groundbreaking therapies—like newly approved monoclonal antibody treatments—that can slow decline by up to 40%.
