SUMMARY:Catchup - Salon - Colab Lab: Making Multidisciplinary Work\, Work
DESCRIPTION:This Salon webinar brings together Laura Rooney from the Alzheimer’s Society and Dr Emma Law from The Neuroprogressive and Dementia Network in Scotland to explore the realities of managing and working within multidisciplinary teams. With backgrounds spanning clinical trials\, mental health\, behavioural science\, and research delivery\, they share their experiences of navigating different disciplines\, building effective collaborations\, and making progress in complex research environments. . \nDementia is a complex condition\, and tackling it requires more than one lens. Neuroscientists\, clinicians\, social scientists\, data analysts\, artists—when these voices come together\, the possibilities expand. But working in multidisciplinary teams is not always easy. Different languages\, priorities\, and ways of thinking can lead to misunderstanding or friction. So how do we make these collaborations work? How do we manage diverse teams in a way that brings out the best in everyone? Today\, we will explore what it takes to thrive in multidisciplinary research and why it matters more than ever in dementia. \nSpeakers\n\nLaura Rooney is Lead Research Nurse for the Alzheimer’s Society. With a decade of experience workin in Cancer Trials Delivery\, Laura recently started to work at Alzheimer’s Society leading the first dementia research nurse programme in England\, Wales and Northern Ireland. This is a £3m pilot project\, which will embed 10 dedicated dementia research nurses into NHS settings across the UK to accelerate recruitment into research studies. \nDr Emma Law is Strategic Manager for the The Neuroprogressive and Dementia Network in Scotland. Emma has 13 years experience as a Clinical Trails Network Manager and over 35 years experience as a Nurse\, many of which were spent in the delivery of Clinical Research Trials. Emma completed her PhD and is passionate about giving people living with dementia and their carers access to participate in research. \nProgramme\nThe format of the event is a 30 minute livestream where the speakers will each present their thoughts on this topic for 10 minutes each\, the host will then ask questions and the livestream will end. The speakers will then join the online chat and interact with the audience\, answering questions and giving those who attended a chance to share their thoughts on the topic.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAvailable to join exclusivley in Dementia Researcher Communities – Online or in the App\n\nWatch the Recording
