Dr Lis Grey - Think BIG, Moving from the Individual to the Population

Dr Lis Grey, narrating her blog written for the Dementia Researcher website.

In this blog Lis discusses the limitations of individual-level interventions in preventing chronic diseases, including dementias. While recent advances in identifying biomarkers and understanding the genetic basis of dementias are promising, the Lis argues that focusing solely on individual interventions, such as health checks and behavioural support, has limited success in reducing health risks and can exacerbate stigma. Instead she advocates for a broader, population-level approach that addresses social determinants of health, such as poverty and pollution, to achieve more substantial and equitable health outcomes. They call for a shift in research and policy focus towards these upstream changes to effectively prevent dementia and other chronic diseases.
