Older adults experiencing dual decline are at greater risk of developing dementia than those with changes in only one area. 

The webinar will bring together a group of experts from the youth, high school and college levels — including Alex Diamond, DO, MPH, director of the Vanderbilt Youth Sports Health Center.

With no appointment necessary, patients can walk in and be seen by orthopaedic specialists trained to diagnose and treat a wide range of acute injuries and chronic conditions.

The advisory council is a part of the National Council of Youth Sports, a leading organization representing youth sports in the United States.

The institute engages faculty across the organization in research, training, education and community activities aimed at translating knowledge into better health.

The event, open to general practitioners, trainers, physical therapists, coaches, teachers and concerned families is Friday and Saturday at Bridgestone Arena.

The recognition honors the quantity and quality of the sports research authored and published by Vanderbilt University Medical Center physicians and researchers.
