A panel discussion and testimonials will follow, addressing topics such as anxiety, depression and alzheimer’s disease. Specialists on the panel include Grace Voo, clinic director of Soma Counselling & Family Resources, and Dr. Brian MacVicar, director of the Djavad Mowafaghian Centre for Brain Health at the University of British Columbia.
