Elementary Academy this week highlighting patient public involvement (PPI) & how those affected by dementia can get involved with design & delivery of research. Research at ARUK talk on fund raising research relationship & focus on quantitative research methods from The University of Edinburgh
We had a highly successful day in #Wolverhampton with our Great Minds register...speaking to its south Asian community. A diversity of volunteers is vital to transform #dementia research. DPUK's Dishaa Sinha spoke and translated into Hindi. Great Minds: zurl.co/0kKB
Congratulations to our Flash Talk prizewinners at #Translation2024 . Andrea du Preez (King's College London) talked about #diet and #nutrition in cognitive decline. Danielle Newby (@OxPsychiatry) presented research on #bigdata uses in detecting #dementia treatment side effects.
Data-based dementia research is complex. Our Elementary Academy in partnership with The University of Edinburgh aims to inspire a new generation of cohort analysts and equip existing researchers with enhanced statistical skills. 5 day online training starts today!

Clinical trials need to be faster and set up quickly. Data is needed from a much more representative population if we are going to successfully provide real change for real people.

One false start and thought I would have to do interpretive dance of my talk so thank you Dementias Platform UK for the opportunity to present our new work on “Using big data to detect side effects of drug treatments” #Translation24
It's great to have some lots of UK Dementia Research Institute researchers here at #Translation2024
David Bennet doing his level best to make my brain explode at Dementias Platform UK #Translation2024
Really amazing talk on factors driving cognitive decline, resilience to it and ways to get to precision medicine. Short answer - it’s complicated
#Translation2024 is kicking off and I had no idea that Cambridge FTD was a Sesame Street fan!
Really looking forward to two days of great science and discussion.
Countdown to kick off! We're ready to welcome the #dementia research community to #Translation2024 tomorrow! Day 1 Early Career Researchers workshop and #biomarkers in experimental medicine. Join conversation using #Translation2024
