In 2015 Professor Rossor from University College London and Professor Martin Knapp from The London School of Economics published a paper in the Lancet entitled ‘Can we model a cognitive footprint of interventions and policies to help to meet the global challenge of dementia?’ In this podcast Piers Kotting talks to Professor Rossor and Professor Parashkev Nachev exploring the concept of a ‘Cognitive Footprint’ and getting behind the follow-up research has already undertaken in this field, and plans for the new work recently funded by the Health Foundation.

Join Megan O’Hare interviewing the panel for an insightful discussion on PPI in biomedical research. On previous podcasts, we have discussed the importance of Patient and Public Involvement (PPI) – and the value it can add to research project development and also to researchers themselves, people living with dementia and their carers. Today’s podcast looks at PPI in biomedical research as there is a growing trend toward involving patients and public in lab-based projects. The panel – Dr Lindsey Sinclair, from Bristol University, Dr Claire Lancaster from Oxford University and Dr Martina Bocchetta from University College London, discuss how they have used PPI when developing their research projects and applying for funding and share tips on best places to seek out PPI help and involvement and what they have learned along the way.
