Meet John, who was diagnosed with #FrontotemporalDementia aged just 59. After signing up to Join Dementia Research, he took part in online studies, such as a survey on how best to speak to people with #dementia about medications. Read his story at: news.joindementiaresearch.nihr.ac.uk/taking-part-de…
Childhood #dementia can be caused by rare genetic disorders. Not much is known about it or how to treat it. Here's an interesting article in @ConversationUK about #research into this under-represented aspect of dementia theconversation.com/what-is-childh…
April is #StressAwarenessMonth. We are supporting #research into this topic, including a @LivUni led study into developing a questionnaire to measure how carers manage their stress. Read more: news.joindementiaresearch.nihr.ac.uk/new-studies-re…

We are looking forward to seeing this!
It's a worrying fact that 40,000 people with #dementia go missing in the UK each year. Important new #research is assessing views on using face-matching technology and an online form to find them faster. The study is being led by @VasilikiOrgeta of @ucl news.joindementiaresearch.nihr.ac.uk/study-explores…
A new study is using a virtual reality game to assess how well people navigate their surroundings. The study, led by @NeilBurgess10 and @AndrCastegnaro of @ucl, aims to help spot early signs of #Alzheimers disease. news.joindementiaresearch.nihr.ac.uk/virtual-realit…
We have produced a new Easy Read leaflet so we can help more people understand how to take part in #dementia #research. You can download it, together with our other resources here: news.joindementiaresearch.nihr.ac.uk/join-dementia-…
Do you know an early career researcher who is making an outstanding impact in the #dementia #research field? These awards are open to ALL and you have until 20 May to get your nominations in!
A good reminder here on the connection between #lewybodydementia and #parkinsonsdisease. We often help recruit participants to studies into both conditions. Here are a couple which are currently open: news.joindementiaresearch.nihr.ac.uk/research-under… #ParkinsonsAwarenessWeek

I am so super excited about this study (which was one of those "dream" studies that we all have logged away!), and I'm so grateful for @beatdementia for providing such a useful resource of linking scientists and participants who so generously contribute their time to research!

An interesting new #research study is using images of birds to test how we build associations and knowledge in memory. The Bird Memory Study is recruiting participants through Join Dementia Research and led by @vmloaiza1 of @sheffielduni. news.joindementiaresearch.nihr.ac.uk/new-study-uses…
Have you seen this insightful article in @ConversationUK about how identifying vision problems can predict #dementia 12 years before diagnosis? This #research involved more than 8,000 healthy participants in Norfolk. Read more: theconversation.com/how-your-visio…

Calling all researchers: are you struggling to recruit to your #dementia study? Jessica Baggaley of @UniOfHull used Join Dementia Research to recruit more than 50% of her participants to her study into self-compassion in people with dementia. news.joindementiaresearch.nihr.ac.uk/jessica-baggal…
