Studies show that dementia cases in the U.S. could double by 2060. That might sound grim, but it's partly because more people are living into their 70s, 80s, and 90s, when dementia is more likely to appear. Physician Keren Landman explores how dementia rates are increasing while dementia prevention is getting better—but the benefits from this knowledge aren't being shared equally.
