Having worked in senior living, Allison has first-hand experience in how difficult the journey is for seniors who develop these debilitating neurodegenerative conditions. With both friends and family also affected by Alzheimer’s, Allison chooses to actively work towards the solution in her role with BioVie by building partnerships that create opportunities for more seniors to be able to participate in groundbreaking clinical research and drug development.
