SUMMARY:Health Data Research UK Conference
DESCRIPTION:The UK’s No.1 conference on health data science returns for 2025. Join us at this two-day hybrid event to celebrate the latest advances in health data science that are improving people’s lives. \n15-16 October 2025\, Scottish Event Campus (SEC)\, Exhibition Way\, Glasgow G3 8YW \nWhy you should join us \nHealth Data Research UK’s annual conference will be a two-day\, hybrid event to celebrate progress and bring people together to accelerate the trustworthy use of health data for public benefit. This is an event dedicated to celebrating how health data science can improve people’s lives.  \nWhat to expect \nThe UK is in a unique position to realise the potential of health data\, thanks to the NHS and its cradle-to-grave records for a population of over 65 million people. The last few years have demonstrated the enormous power of data to advance medical knowledge and deliver radical improvements to people’s lives. But there is much more that can be done through large-scale data\, advanced analytics and innovative developments in data governance.   \nHealth Data Research UK’s annual conference will be a two-day\, hybrid event to celebrate this progress and allow us to come together and continue to build momentum in the health data research revolution. \nHow to attend \nThe conference will be hosted in person in Glasgow\, UK\, or you can join online and access all the sessions as live streams.  \nSave the date / find out more

SUMMARY:Connecting Psychosis and Dementia: Shared Brain Signatures
DESCRIPTION:Centre for Dementia Seminar: “Connecting Psychosis and Dementia: Shared Brain Signatures”: Presented by Lisa Hahn via Teams\, Postdoctoral Researcher\, Precision Psychiatry Lab\, Ludwig-Maximilians-Universität (LMU) Hospital\, Munich\, Germany. \nLisa Hahn completed her PhD at the Research Centre Jülich under the supervision of Prof. Dr. Jürgen Dukart\, focusing on neuroimaging and behavioural biomarkers in neuropsychiatric disorders\, including postpartum depression and behavioural variant frontotemporal dementia. Since 2022\, she has been a postdoctoral researcher in the Precision Psychiatry Lab led by Prof. Nikolaos Koutsouleris\, where her work focuses on mechanism-informed machine learning for neuropsychiatric diseases. \nLisa will present work from Professor Nikolaos Koutsouleris examining links between frontotemporal dementia and psychosis. She will then discuss her PhD research on neurotransmitter alterations in behavioural variant frontotemporal dementia\, relating structural and functional neuroimaging to normative neurotransmitter density maps using the JuSpace toolbox. Finally\, she will outline her current efforts to integrate this methodology into a machine learning framework and her plans to leverage this approach in frontotemporal dementia. \nRegister on Teams

SUMMARY:Catch-up - Salon Debate - Animal Models in Dementia Research
DESCRIPTION:Are animal models still useful in dementia research? Join Professor Michael Coleman and Dr Loukia Katsouri for a live debate on 15 Oct at 12pm and have your say in the vote. \n\nDebate Motion: \nThis House believes that animal models have outlived their usefulness in dementia research.\n\nFor decades\, animal models\, particularly genetically modified mice\, have been central to dementia research. But with growing concerns around translational failures\, ethics\, and advances in human-based models\, is it time to move on? Or do animal models still hold essential value in understanding disease mechanisms and testing treatments? \n\nSpeaker For the Motion:\nProfessor Michael Coleman is the van Geest Professor of Neuroscience in the Department of Clinical Neurosciences\, University of Cambridge. Michael leads a team that comprises exceptional researchers from around the world\, who work across a variety of disciplines in a highly collaborative environment. His research sits at the interface between basic and clinical neuroscience\, translating advances in axon and synapse protection to treat and prevent neurodegenerative diseases. \nSpeaker Against the Motion:\nDr Loukia Katsouri is a Senior Research Fellow at University College London’s Sainsbury Wellcome Centre. Her research focuses on the molecular mechanisms of tau propagation in Alzheimer’s disease\, combining molecular\, pharmacological and behavioural approaches to understand how tau drives disease spread\, neuronal death and cognitive decline. \n\nWhat to Expect\nJoin us for a live online debate where our speakers will present opposing views on the continued relevance of animal models in dementia research. The session will include: \n\n10-minute opening statements from each speaker\nModerated discussion\nAudience Q&A\nLive vote before and after the debate to see if opinions shift\n\nWhether you’re firmly for\, firmly against\, or somewhere in between\, come along and be part of the conversation. \n\n\nWatch the Recording

SUMMARY:Webinar - Social care for young onset dementia: raising social workers’ awareness
DESCRIPTION:This Young Dementia Network webinar will introduce a resource that has been co-produced to improve social workers’ understanding of young onset dementia\, so that they are in a better position to respond effectively to those living with or supporting someone with the condition. \nSocial care includes support to help someone to live their life as fully as possible and maintain independence\, dignity and control. Social workers are a key group\, with a role in carrying out assessments of what people living with dementia and their carers need and advising on care plans to meet those needs. However\, most social workers have little experience with young onset dementia and may not be aware of the way it affects people’s lives. One carer told us she had to advise the social worker\, rather than the social worker being able to advise her. \nIn this webinar\, Julie\, a former social worker who lives with young onset dementia\, will talk about her experiences of social care and the potential for improvement. Professor Jan Oyebode from the University of Bradford will provide findings from the DYNAMIC project on social workers’ awareness and experiences with young onset dementia. \nThe webinar will cover the process of co-production and the resulting co-produced resource\, designed to help raise social workers’ awareness of the needs of people living with young onset dementia. \nRegister to Attend
