Discovery Café – Stroke Update 2026 – Dr. Christopher Skinner
We are thrilled that Dr. Christopher Skinner will be joining us for a trifecta! In his third Discovery Café session, Dr. Skinner will turn his focus to the impact and prevention of strokes. Specifically, he will review:
- the different types of strokes and how stroke can affect daily life;
- strategies to reduce stroke risk factors, both personal and societal;
- some of the on-line tools to allow the assessment of personal risk for stroke; and
- some the medications used for prevention and treatment of stroke.
