Welcome Message from the President of Asian Society Against Dementia (ASAD)

On behalf of the Executive Committee and Advisors of the Asian Society Against Dementia,


I warmly invite you to join us for the 18th International Conference of ASAD which is held in conjunction with the 32nd Malaysian Society of Neurosciences Annual Scientific Meeting (MSN 2024), 6th Malaysia Stroke Conference (MSC 2024), 12th Malaysian Paediatric Neurology Update Meeting & 6th BRaINs l BNC Research and Innovations in Neuroscience, at Penang from 15th to 17th August 2024.


The objectives of ASAD are to promote and encourage the advancement of scientific knowledge through research and practice in all aspects of dementia, as well as the exchange and dissemination of this knowledge and expertise throughout Asia.


This has been achieved in annual conferences which have been held in different parts of Asia since...

This has been achieved in annual conferences which have been held in different parts of Asia since the first meeting in Chennai in 2007. It wonderful to return to Malaysia as the 2012 conference was held in Kuala Lumpur.


The theme of “Rethinking Dementia: The Concept of One Health”, is most appropriate given recent advances in disease modifying treatment for early Alzheimer’s Dementia, which now need to be implemented. Moreover, a focus on good Brain Health across the life course is vital to reducing the large and growing healthcare burden associated with brain disorders. We must look beyond the treatment of disorders or rehabilitation by focusing on preventive measures to decrease the incidence of brain disorders, thus enabling our patients and families to realise their full potential. These and many other topics will be part of this exciting conference and I hope that we can meet together soon in Penang!

In the ever-evolving landscape of neurology, our comprehension of dementia stands at the forefront of transformative change. The One Health paradigm emphasizes the interconnectedness of neurological health, public health, and environmental influences. This conference serves as a unique crucible for neurologists to explore inventive perspectives, share groundbreaking research, and collectively contribute to a holistic understanding of dementia.


Your invaluable expertise and insights are integral to shaping the discourse around dementia and fostering a collaborative, interdisciplinary approach. We invite you to submit abstracts that echo the diversity of your work, from clinical observations to research elucidating the interconnectedness of neurological health with broader health and environmental contexts.


Together, let us forge new paths in dementia research, guided by the principles of One Health to magnify our collective impact. I eagerly anticipate your active participation in this transformative conference, where our collaborative efforts will chart new territories in understanding and addressing dementia.


Thank you and I look forward to seeing you in Penang next year!

This conference marks a significant milestone as it brings together the strengths of not just one, but three esteemed organizations—Malaysia Stroke Council, Malaysia Society of Neurosciences and ASAD. By fostering collaboration, we aim to create a synergistic platform where the collective expertise of neurologists can illuminate new pathways in understanding and addressing neurological challenges.


Your presence here is more than a participation; it is a commitment to the spirit of collaboration that defines this conference. As we explore the intersections of neurology, stroke research, dementia and the broader aspects of health, your diverse perspectives will contribute to the richness of discussions and insights. Let us seize this opportunity to forge lasting connections, exchange ideas, and collectively elevate the impact of neurology research. The ASAD MSN MSC 2024 is a testament to the power of collaboration, and I look forward to witnessing the transformative outcomes that will undoubtedly emerge from our collective efforts.


Thank you for joining us on this exciting journey towards a future where collaboration propels the field of neurology to new heights.
