Full Summary:
The commentary described three key areas that could be improved with early detection and intervention.
Aubrey IncorvaiaAubrey Incorvaia, a Ph.D. candidate in the School of Public Policy, recently published an open peer commentary in AJOB Neuroscience titled “Early Detection of Alzheimer’s Disease Benefits Research, Quality of Life, and End-of-Life Planning.” The commentary is a response to a March 2021 article titled “Ethics of Early Intervention in Alzheimer’s Disease.”
The original article argues that early intervention in Alzheimer’s Disease raises ethical concerns by blurring the boundary between primary and secondary intervention. In her commentary, Incorvaia responds by highlighting three main areas that can benefit from early intervention: research, quality of life, and end-of-life planning. Hers was one of approximately 12 open peer commentaries published for that article.
Incorvaia’s full commentary can be found at https://doi.org/10.1080/21507740.2021.1941404.
