"Remembering Alzheimer's: A Special Report"
Broadcast starting week of November 28, 2007

This week on The Infinite Mind, a new, special report on the effects of Alzheimer's Disease on one family, and the latest news on breakthroughs in research and treatments for the disorder.

"Remembering Alzheimer's" features American Public Media's Brian Newhouse, who examines the impact that Alzheimer's had on his father. The show also includes conversations with leading researcher Dr. Marilyn Albert, Co-Director of the Johns Hopkins Alzheimer's Disease Research Center, and Dr. Peter Reed, Senior Director of Programs for the National Alzheimer's Association.

Additionally, we hear a dramatic and gripping first-person account of what it's like to live with Alzheimer's, from James Smith, 47 years old, a former executive with American Express who was recently diagnosed with the illness.
