Our Older People and Dementia research is dedicated to addressing the unique needs of individuals with dementia and their caregivers. We're developing and testing new methods to enhance inclusive participation in research and research trials, with a focus on underrepresented groups. Our research innovates cognitive assessment and training methods, enhances social connection and quality of life and breaks down digital technological barriers to help support self-management and encourage independence.
