Outreach

The members of the de Leon Lab lead outreach efforts to the Filipino community. 

The UCSF Memory and Aging Center’s (MAC) Community Outreach program is dedicated to improving the brain health of all communities https://memory.ucsf.edu/about/community-outreach.

Our Filipino outreach efforts align with those of our parent outreach program:   

  1. To increase brain health literacy among the Filipino community, particularly given the high rates of dementia in our community. 

  1. To promote participation of the Filipino community in research projects, which has the potential to improve community health. 

We are available to give community talks on brain health. Please contact us at [email protected] if you are interested in this for your organization.
