SUMMARY:Research Showcase - Improving Palliative Dementia Care at Home
DESCRIPTION:How can homecare workers better identify and respond to the palliative care needs of people living with dementia. And what does it take to introduce practical tools into everyday care. \nThis livestream is part of the Dementia Researcher weekly Showcase series. Each week we host a 45 minute online session bringing researchers together to share their work\, methods\, and ideas. \nIn this session\, Annika Dhawan will share work from the PALLDEM Homecare study\, a proof of concept project exploring how the IPOS Dem (Integrated Palliative Care Outcome Scale for Dementia) can be implemented within domiciliary homecare settings. \nThe study aims to support homecare workers in recognising and responding to the palliative care needs of people living with dementia through practical\, co designed tools and processes. Annika will discuss findings from co production workshops with homecare workers and managers\, alongside early insights into barriers\, facilitators\, and practical considerations for implementing IPOS Dem in everyday care. \nAnnika is a Research Assistant at King’s College London\, based at the Cicely Saunders Institute of Palliative Care\, Policy and Rehabilitation. Her work focuses on improving dementia care and supporting implementation of person centred palliative approaches in real world settings.e for questions and discussion. \nAttendees can expect a research focused session with time for questions and discussion. \n\nRegister

SUMMARY:Research Showcase - Assistive Technology and Dementia Care
DESCRIPTION:What can the UK learn from Japan about technology and dementia care. And how might robotics\, virtual reality\, smart homes\, and artificial intelligence support people living with dementia. \nThis livestream is part of the Dementia Researcher weekly Showcase series. Each week we host a 45 minute online session bringing researchers together to share their work\, methods\, and ideas. \nIn this session\, Bethany Linder will share insights from her Churchill Fellowship exploring advances in assistive dementia technology in Japan. Through visits with leading experts in robotics\, virtual reality\, and smart home technologies\, Bethany examined how one of the world’s fastest ageing populations is using technology to support people living with dementia. \nThe session will explore what has worked\, what has not worked\, and future directions in assistive technology\, alongside reflections on how lessons from Japan could help improve dementia care in the UK. \nBethany is a dementia researcher at the Nuffield Department of Primary Care Health Sciences\, University of Oxford. Her work focuses on using technology to support older adults and people affected by dementia\, including current research exploring how artificial intelligence could support medication management for people living with dementia. \nAttendees can expect a research focused session with time for questions and discussion. \n\nRegister

SUMMARY:Research Showcase - Queer Minds Matter: Dementia\, Identity\, and the Politics of Being Seen
DESCRIPTION:How well does dementia research reflect the experiences of LGBTQ+ communities. And what happens when people living with dementia are excluded from the conversations that shape research\, policy\, and care. \nThis livestream is part of the Dementia Researcher weekly Showcase series. Each week we host a 45 minute online session bringing researchers together to share their work\, methods\, and ideas. \nIn this session\, Dáithí Clayton will chat with Dr Claudio Di Lorito\, Senior Research Fellow\, Primary Care and Population Health\, University College London & NIHR Research Support Service (RSS) Advisor and EDI Lead\, King’s College Hub. Together they will explore the current state of queer dementia research\, with a particular focus on the experiences of trans and nonbinary people living with dementia. Drawing on both research and lived experience\, they will reflect on how identity\, visibility\, and inclusion shape the realities of dementia care and support. \nThe session will examine progress made within the field\, highlight ongoing gaps in knowledge and practice\, and consider how researchers\, practitioners\, and policy makers can better address the needs of LGBTQ+ communities affected by dementia. \nDáithí is a dementia researcher\, advocate\, and educator based in Belgium. Their work focuses on queer dementia research\, challenging inequities in care and representation while amplifying the voices and experiences of people who have often been overlooked within dementia research and practice. \nAttendees can expect a thought provoking and discussion led session with time for questions and conversation. \n\nRegister
