From October 26 to 28, 2026, Dr. Patrick Archambault participated in the annual conference of the Canadian Consortium on Neurodegeneration in Aging (CCNA), held in Vancouver.
As part of this event, he took part in the session “Beyond the numbers: Participation in the search for people affected by a neurocognitive disorder,” alongside Marie Laflamme and Brigitte Léger, caregiver partners. This session, presented on October 26, focused on engaging people with lived experience in neurocognitive disorders research.
This participation is particularly in line with the activities related to EPLED and the AQUILA project. The team’s work highlights the importance of partnering with caregivers and people with lived experience to support their participation at different stages of the research.
The CCNA’s annual conference is also an opportunity to bring together researchers, people with lived experience and different partners around research advances in neurocognitive disorders and brain health.
