Innovating Care for Dementia
The Ray Dolby Brain Health Center at CPMC
Under the direction of Catherine Madison, M.D. the Ray Dolby Brain Health Center at CPMC has helped hundreds
of local families deal with not only the challenges of medical care, but also the stress and practical considerations of
an Alzheimer’s diagnosis. Now, in a move toward developing innovative new treatments for dementia, the center has
hired Alireza Atri, M.D., Ph.D., formerly of Massachusetts General Hospital and Harvard Medical School to hold
the Ray Dolby Endowed Chair in Brain Health Research. “I believe with perseverance we can significantly lessen the
health and social impact of dementia,” says Dr. Atri. The center was launched by a generous philanthropic
investment from Dagmar Dolby and her family.
