In this podcast we reflect on the recent UK Dementia Care Research Summit 2020 hosted by Alzheimer’s Society, National Institute for Health Research and Economic & Social Research Council. Discussing the highlights, outcomes and next step (which we think are probably applicable in many countries). The dementia research community is driven by a desire to make positive change for people affected by dementia. Great progress has been made so far but change is still needed. Our host Adam Smith talks with Hannah Churchill from Alzheimer’s Society, Dr Tamara Backhouse from the University of East Anglia and Dr Keir Yong from University College London. Footage from the summit can be viewed on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/user/AlzheimersSociety/videos For details of all the speakers and the programme visit: https://www.alzheimers.org.uk/sites/default/files/2020-01/Programme_A5_ONLINE.pdf Adam Smith the chair of this podcast has also written a blog with his top 10 suggestions for next steps, and what he thought were the main lessons learned and take-aways form the day: https://www.dementiaresearcher.nihr.ac.uk/guest-blog-reflecting-on-the-first-uk-dementia-care-research-summit/ You can find out more about our panellists, and their work on our website www.dementiaresearcher.nihr.ac.uk.
