Authors identify peer-reviewed academic and medical journal articles that examine
typical neuroanatomical aspects and characteristics of the different types of dementia.
The authors reinforce the importance of a thorough understanding of these
neuroanatomical characteristics for differential diagnosis of dementias. Additionally,
authors identify best practices for interprofessional education (IPE) for improving
services provided to older adults. Studies have also shown that IPE activities may elicit
positive changes in student perceptions toward older adults and other professions.
