The conference will take place at the Capital Hilton Hotel, Washington DC, USA, 7-8 July 2000, immediately prior to the World Alzheimer Congress. Invited speakers will review the major inflammatory mechanisms that have been uncovered in the AD brain, summarizing essential background information and reviewing how the particular inflammatory mediator or mechanism is expressed and acts in the AD brain. Additional lectures will be devoted to the interactions of the various pathways and their relevance to AD pathophysiology, based on reviews of the basic science and clinical literature. A final session will address the controversies that exist in the field, such as the most appropriate choice of an anti-inflammatory therapeutic for AD. These oral presetnations will be supplemented by a number of poster presentations on the themes of the conference.
