SUMMARY:Exploring Nature-Based Virtual Reality to Support Mood and Wellbeing in Alzheimer’s Disease
DESCRIPTION:Summary: \nThis webinar will explore how nature-based virtual reality (VR) and other technology-based approaches are being used as non-pharmacological interventions to support people living with Alzheimer’s disease who experience behavioural and psychological symptoms\, such as depression or agitation. Attendees will learn how immersive\, nature-inspired experiences can improve mood\, reduce stress\, and enhance quality of life for people living with dementia and their care partners. \nThe session will then introduce a new study at the Centre for Addiction and Mental Health (CAMH)\, led by Dr. Harmehr Sekhon\, that is investigating whether an at-home\, nature-based VR program can help manage depression in Alzheimer’s disease. The study also explores how these tools may help people maintain independence and age in place longer. \nThis webinar is presented in plain language and will include time for audience questions. \nFor more information on the study\, visit: https://tdra.utoronto.ca/study/vrn-ad \nPresented in partnership with the Toronto Dementia Research Alliance and the Alzheimer Society of Toronto. \n  \nAbout the Presenter \nDr. Harmehr Sekhon is an Assistant Professor at McGill University and an Associate Scientist at St. Mary’s Research Centre. She completed her Ph.D. in geriatrics at McGill and postdoctoral training in Geriatric Psychiatry at McLean Hospital\, McGill University\, and the Centre for Addiction and Mental Health (CAMH). She is the Director of the GeriTech Innovation Research Lab\, which includes a team of eight members working on novel technology-based interventions to support healthy aging across the care continuum. \nHer research focuses on developing and testing innovative digital health technologies—such as virtual reality\, telehealth\, and robotics—to improve diagnosis\, treatment\, and quality of life for older adults living with dementia and other mental health challenges. To date\, she has published 50 scientific papers and holds an H-index of 20.

SUMMARY:Virtual Explore Art with Jano
DESCRIPTION:Monday\, November 3rd from 2:00 – 3:00 P.M on Zoom  \nSign up for another insightful Explore Art with Jano\, a virtual art appreciation program. We continue our series “Focus on Nature” with a session on gardens. Spaces for contemplation and relaxation gardens have been turned into luscious landscapes or intriguing vistas since time immemorial. \nJoin us with your curiosity and come ready to share thoughts and ideas. We will focus on a variety of gardens to pause and ponder at how artists have rendered these typically green spaces that offer us respite from our everyday routines. \nJano Cortijo is an arts educator whose work finds him engaging audiences of various ages\, abilities\, and backgrounds in museums\, classrooms\, community centres\, and online. Straying far from the canon to elevate artists and works that have been excluded or erased from mainstream conversations\, Cortijo encourages critical discussion while connecting the participants’ individual histories and stories with the art and art makers. \nImage caption: \nPierre Bonnard\, The Orchard\, 1899\nLithograph\, 13 x 14 inches
