Dementias Platform Translation 2025
March 13 - March 14
TRANSLATION 2025 is a two-day conference bringing together leading researchers to discuss the latest discoveries and innovations in dementia research.
Recent new drugs impacting dementia’s progression, new drives in data research, biomarker studies, international collaborations, a growing infrastructure, effective trials delivery capacity are all important elements for translational research. So too, is experimental research as we seek to find new disease-modifying treatments for dementia.
250 delegates, from academia, industry and the third sector will be attending at The Congress Centre in London who are hosting us for the second time.
In addition to the main session during our busy 2-day conference, we are holding an Early Career Researcher morning which has proved extremely popular for those in the earlier stages of research in this field.
The conference will be at The Congress Centre, Great Russell Street, London on 13-14th March 2025.
DON’T DELAY! Our EARLY BIRD rate for people booking in advance saves you £100 (33% of the full cost price).
EARLY CAREER RESEARCHERS can book for a flat rate of £60, including the ECR morning on 13th March.
Once you have registered, we will keep you up to date with the latest news about the conference.
ECR WORKSHOP – 13TH March
Dedicated to Early Career Researchers, this special morning workshop will be held immediately before the main conference begins. It has proved to be a highlight for many EVRs and focuses on very useful talks about the resources available to help researchers from DPUK, Alzheimer’s Research UK and many others.
Posters and Flash Talks will once again feature at this year’s Translation conference. The opportunities are reserved for ECRs to present their research. Abstracts must be submitted by Friday 13th December 2024.
The best Posters and Flash Talks will be awarded prizes.
READ MORE ABOUT THE SUBMITTING AN ABSTRACT.
We have a poster presentation space at our event which is adjacent to the main conference hall. There is wide scope for ECRs to present a poster or give a flash talk relating to the themes of the conference. We will be pleased to receive submissions. Details about how to submit and the deadline are detailed here. The opportunity is limited to Early Career Researchers. We will be awarding prizes for the best Poster Presentations and Flash Talks.
SUBMITTING AN ABSTRACT
Assessment Criteria
DPUK aims to enhance the UK translational environment through human experimental medicine, harnessing the powers of informatics and streamlining trial delivery. These aims are reflected in the DPUK platform’s core areas of activity: Informatics, Trials Delivery, and Experimental Medicine.
The theme of DPUK’s Translation 2025 event is ‘Embracing complexity’. The three overarching topics of the conference are Trials Delivery; Biomarkers; and Data.
Abstracts should describe and evidence recent scientific work, outputs and/or insights, bearing in mind the following selection criteria:
- Scientifically appropriate to conference: abstracts should focus on human-based research which has the potential to be used in the development of experiment medicine for dementia, and alignment with at least one of the three conference session topics
- Robust scientific methods: abstracts should demonstrate sound use of scientific methods (e.g. sufficient number of participants, appropriate application of statistical techniques etc.)
- Consistent scientific thread: the abstract title and background, method, and conclusion paragraphs should clearly link together on the chosen scientific topic.
Please follow this link to submit your abstract.
Closing date: Friday 13th December 2024 at 11.59pm
