Why did you participate in this training?

I am a geriatric physician from China. Dementia is common in my country and there is a large aging population. Karolinska Insitutet has an excellent reputation in the field of dementia.

How has this training helped you in your profession?

I plan to establish a biomark database at my university hospital. I will use the knowledge to further research on dementia. I also plan to encourage more geriatrics and neurologists to attend this course.

How do you think this training will impact your work place?

Compared with KI, the overall quality of clinical practice and research of dementia in China is not so good. This knowledge will help advance the knowledge of dementia in my country.

Would you recommend this course to others?

Yes, absolutely. The knowledge will help benefit other doctors and patients.
