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 last show of the season Trevor is joined by Dr Megan Polden from the University of Liverpool and NIHR Applied Research Collaboration (ARC) North West Coast to interview Dr Neil Chadborn.
Neil (who you will remember from episode one) works at the University of Nottingham and NIHR ARC East Midlands. He is leading work to explore the benefits of intergenerational story telling as a way to connect people living with dementia, with a particular focus on those from minority ethnic backgrounds and the South Asian Community.
