Thanks to Bill Gates for this touching Father's Day piece on Alzheimer's disease that highlights his optimism based in part due to a visit to Indiana University School of Medicine last summer! #ENDALZ #goteamstark

Bill Gates: I lost my father to Alzheimer’s. But I’m more optimistic than ever about fighting the disease

Bill Gates writes: “We are on the cusp of turning the tide against dementia — which makes this an especially bad time to pull back on research.”
