About this event

Business • Other

Join us in Oxford to hear the latest in dementia research from leading experts at Dementias Platform UK. At this event leading researchers will be talking about blood biomarkers and the role of volunteer registers in helping to advance dementia research.

THEMES:

Biomarkers: There is a lot of excitement surrounding the prospect of using a simple blood test to accurately diagnose dementia. Using biomarkers could be a major step forward for NHS if they can be introduced effectively at scale.

Registers: Great Minds is a hugely important resource available to researchers. It is just one of several registers which can be used to identify and engage the right participants in studies and trials. Hear more about their value and how participation in a register advances the search for treatments.#

WHO CAN ATTEND?

This event is part of our GREAT MINDS LIVE series of events. It is open for anyone to attend. Members of the GREAT MINDS register and people involved with our READ-OUT study are especially welcome.
