Why academia is sleepwalking into self-destruction. My editorial @Brain1878 If you agree with the sentiments please RT. It's important for all our sakes to stop the madness https://t.co/5S5rL8Yda1

Such a shame not being able to be at #ARUKconf25 in person, but tuning in from the US - wonderful discussion on fluid markers in dementia, and undergoing UK efforts! Thanks @AlzResearchUK for bringing the community together on this key topic and funding great work in this area!

Congratulations to @M_Malpetti and her team working on the On-FIRE project. It is an associated study which exemplifies how @DementiasPlatform can help to deliver great dementia research.
A simple blood test to help detect signs of dementia decades before it develops is being rolled out across the UK by the University of Cambridge. Part of a new study, the researchers are backed by @RacingDementia, the charity founded by Formula 1 racing legend Sir Jackie
