0:00.0 | Lisa, welcome to the podcast. You know, I want to start off with something pretty mind-blowing that I learned from you. So globally, we have about 50, 55 million people diagnosed with Alzheimer's disease. But the crazy part is, is that that's set to triple by |
0:15.6 | think 2050 is what I learned from you. But even crazier than that is that only |
