Nihal Satyadev is a medical student, social entrepreneur, researcher, and a leading millennial Alzheimer’s advocate.

In 2015, Nihal realized that Alzheimer’s disease is one of the largest impending healthcare crisis and noticing the lack of youth advocacy, he founded The Youth Movement Against Alzheimer’s (YMAA) – 501(c)3. During his 4 years as CEO, YMAA has become the national leader in providing opportunities for college and high school students to advocate, research, and provide care for those battling with the disease. In addition, YMAA has provided over 5000 hours of respite care and raised $10,000 for undergraduate research scholarships. More recently, Nihal has begun spearheading a statewide campaign in California to start the first-ever “Americorps for caregiving” program to help expand respite care access for family caregivers. His work has been featured on Forbes, the Today Show, TEDMED, ABC, NBC, and several other news outlets. Nihal was recently named an Aspen Health Scholar and a 40 under 40 senior living leader.
