Minds In Motion: Dr Megan Readman - Hearing Loss & Dementia
March 24, 2024
•33m
The Minds in Motion Podcast from Dementia Researcher in association with the NIHR Applied Research Collaborations and Alzheimer’s Society, brings together NIHR Dem Comm Research Fellows, to talk about their research and careers.
In this first series, five of the Dem Comm Fellows each take a turn as co-host and guest. Alongside the researchers we have the incredible Trevor Salomon, Alzheimer’s Society Volunteer & Vice-Chairperson of the European Dementia Carers Working Group as our permanent co-host and anchor.
In this show Trevor is joined by Dr Neil Chadborn from University of Nottingham and NIHR Applied Research Collaboration (ARC) East Midlands to interview Dr Megan Rose Readman.
Megan works at the University of Liverpool and NIHR ARC North West Coast. She discusses her research to understand the connections between hearing loss and atypical types of dementia, specifically Parkinson’s Disease Dementia and Lewy Body Dementia. We also get her career tips, and explore how people living with dementia’s lives are affected by hearing and what can be improved.
Dem Comm is a 2 year programme funded by the National Institute of Health and Care Research and the Alzheimer's Society. It supports a new generation of dementia research leaders, bringing together researchers from different multidisciplinary backgrounds to encourage cross-cutting and community-orientated dementia research projects that can address key gaps in the evidence around dementia care and support, delivering transformative translational research.
