Hindsight suffuses our working life, perhaps none more so than in research. Being as it is a process of discovery and learning of things we didn’t know. As such in many ways there will always be things we wish we’d known earlier. Today we would like to discuss whether the investigative process brings with it complexities and uncertainties that are universal, and can therefore be shared with others as a means to avoid similar pitfalls - as our panel explore 'Things they wish they had known sooner'. In the chair we have Dr Amy Monaghan from the Alzheimer’s Research Drug Discovery Unit at University College London. Amy is joined by Dr Deborah Oliviera from the University of Nottingham, Hanna Isotalus from University of Bristol and Dr Mark Dallas a Lecturer in Cellular and Molecular Neuroscience at the University of Reading.

Many studies are looking at how technology can help. In this podcast Emma Harding and Dr Nicholas Firth talking to Megan O'Hare, discussing their cutting edge research and how they researched the use of Amazon Echo and new technologies to help people living with Posterior Cortical Atrophy (PCA).
