Giving the "Plastic Free July challenge" a go. We've already switched to reusable nappies and sanitary products - I'm looking forward to trying out make-your-own toiletries and cleaning products - not sure how we'll avoid food packaging though... plasticfreejuly.org/take-the-chall…

When I requested to try working from home once a week (easier for childcare arrangements, cheaper, better for the environment...) I didn’t consider the fact that I’d be swapping an office of intelligent, considerate adults for shared space with the worlds most annoying cat!

Such a lovely, supportive and intellectually stimulating team to work in!

Please spread the word, a great oppprtunity

A great idea to share posters for the virtual ARUK conference #ARUKconf20 Here is my poster: an analysis of ASL data from the PREVENT-Dementia cohort Research at ARUK PREVENT Dementia

Good to see the new research criteria for prodromal dementia with Lewy bodies published today. An important step change for the #lewy body #dementia field Lewy Body Society LBDA n.neurology.org/content/early/…

Is coronavirus stress to blame for the rise in bizarre ‘lockdown dreams’? | Mary-Ellen Lynall theguardian.com/commentisfree/…

Thinking about all the parents who are struggling to feed their children during lockdown- support Ely Foodbank, an amazing Localgiving #charity localgiving.org/charity/elyfoo…

@ApoEdscvr Why #apoe e4 carriers would need more blood circulating in brain during middle age? This mechanisms is closer to a genuine risk factor. But of course you can continue analyzing correlation between risk elements and disease scars (amyloid and tau burden in the brain)

We should at this difficult time do all we can to support key Dementia charities. In the UK, Alzheimer's Research UK , Alzheimer's Society and Lewy Body Society do excellent work and fund high quality research. They deserve our support - donate now and encourage others to.

Researchers CPFT Cambridge Psychiatry are looking for volunteers with #dementia to take part in a study investigating brain changes. Participants are invited to 2⃣ brain scans, a cognitive assessment and a blood test. Contact Maria to find out more: 📧 [email protected]

Wonderful!! This is a victorious green leap towards a better future! 💚

Our latest study from the PREVENT Dementia study demonstrates associations between #APOE4 and family history of dementia on longitudinal white matter lesion progression and #inflammation in healthy midlife adults Old Age Psychiatry Group Cambridge Psychiatry bit.ly/2GrQogS

During the session we will be summarising PREVENT findings to date, discussing how PREVENT results will be used outside of research and highlighting where PREVENT sits amongst other global dementia research. We hope to see you there!

Recent analysis using #MRI longitudinal data from our London cohort demonstrates significant associations between #dementia risk score (Cardiovascular Risk Factors, Aging, & Incidence of Dementia score) and grey matter atrophy link.springer.com/article/10.100…

Pleased to share our study on neuroimaging markers of estimated proximity to dementia onset in midlife adults at NeuroImage! Huge thanks to Marialena Dounavi (co-first author), JohnOBrien Craig Ritchie and everyone involved in PREVENT Dementia & Old Age Psychiatry Group! sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

This twitter account is for the Old Age Psychiatry Group at the University of Cambridge. This account will bring you updates about group activities including accepted papers, grant awards, job opportunities, presentations, conferences, and other exciting dementia related news!

Very excited to see our findings of increased cerebral perfusion and decreased cerebrovascular resistance index in middle-aged APOE4 carriers in PREVENT Dementia published in JCBFM journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/02…
