Always a pleasure to catch-up with Editorial Board member, Bengt Winblad (Karolinska University Hospital and Karolinska Institutet, Stockholm, Sweden), who chatted with us on several topics including the MOPEAD initiative.

It strives to improve the identification of subjects with mild cognitive impairment at an early stage. For more information visit: https://www.mopead.eu/
