Alzheimer’s Society has announced that it’s investing £9million into funding three new Doctoral Training Centres.
The centres will support nearly 90 students over five years to enter dementia research and will be led by Professor Stuart Allan at Manchester University, Professor John-Paul Taylor at Newcastle University, and Professor Nathan Davies and Professor Claudia Cooper at Queen Mary University of London.
The focus of the Doctoral Training Centres will be on building knowledge and understanding in areas that have been particularly underfunded. These are:
- Vascular and Immune Contributors to Dementia
- Lewy Body Dementia
- Integrated Care
