World-leading Alzheimer's researcher professor Miia Kivipelto had an audience with Jacinda Ardern -- albeit via video link -- earlier this week when she was awarded the 2020 Ryman Prize for more than 20 years of research into the prevention, diagnosis and treatment of cognitive impairment, Alzheimer's Disease and dementia. The Ryman Prize is an annual $250,000 international award for the best work carried out anywhere in the world that has enhanced quality of life for older people. It is the richest prize of its kind in the world. Professor Kivipelto joins the show to discuss her pioneering research and the impact it is having.
