To further support the initiative, UCSF's Internet campaign is comprised of these other elements:

  • UCSF Memory and Aging Center CJD Web site: First in a series of comprehensive informational sites offering disease-specific informational resources on dementias, the CJD site features physician-researchers and nurses discussing CJD, caregiver information and testimonials, advice for physicians, and resources for basic and translational scientists. Videos on CJD and related topics are featured as well.
  • "Defeat Dementia–Know More Now" Widget: The widget facilitates viral information sharing and an immediate call-to-action for patients, families, friends, caregivers and health professionals. It links to educational videos; clinical trial information; donation opportunities; the YouTube channel, and Facebook group. It is promoted to advocacy groups, and caregiver and professional healthcare organizations for emailing and posting on blogs, Web sites and ad networks.
  • "Defeat Dementia" Facebook Group: To galvanize the younger generation in the fight against degenerative brain disease, UCSF has created a 'Defeat Dementia' Facebook group providing a place to interact, share information, and find or offer support.
  • Veodia Partnership: Veodia's live, real time video broadcasting technology will be used to expand outreach nationally and reinforce relationships with caregivers, patients and healthcare professionals. Important announcements and caregiver conferences featuring UCSF's leading clinicians, physicians and nurses will facilitate remote participation.
