We're delighted to welcome the launch of ADAPT, a study focused on p-tau217 as a potential biomarker to use in a simple blood test to diagnose dementia. It joins our own READ-OUT project in the Blood Biomarker Challenge to find a test to use in NHS brain clinics. www.theguardian.com/society/2025...

If you are putting together a clinical study or trial for dementia, our Great Minds register volunteers are ready to help. We know a lot about them, making it easier to accurately select appropriate candidates and save you time during selection. Find out more: zurl.co/bBiaV

AI identifies new genetic factors in Alzheimer's research. Great to see #DPUK colleague Valentina Escott-Price (@cardiffuni) as part of this research with @UniofOxford & KU Leuven teams, using machine learning to uncover 6 new Alzheimer's-linked genes from 250,000 genetic variants zurl.co/T4VbK

It's been great to be in Toronto for #AAIC25. It's excellent to meet international & industry friends and talk about inspiring future projects...plus I get to see so many @dementiasplatform.bsky.social people and their posters. Mission accomplished! #Dementia #cognition

Come and see us at #ADPD2025. We're part of AD Data Initiative's stand (Booth 16). Talk to us about our #DataPortal, #TrialsDelivery & #Biomarker studies. Speak with Prof Sarah Bauermister and Dr Morgane Kuenzi. #dementia #research #ageing #aging

It is interesting to see how harmonisation as well as sharing and reusing datasets for new studies is becoming more widely adopted.

Professor Vanessa Raymont joins Adam Ball on BBC Radio Oxford to discuss the latest research on early #dementia diagnosis. Listen to the interview: zurl.co/baIee#dementia(starts at 22:38). #DementiaResearch #DPUK

Nice to see The Sun covering the addition of a digital test to the READ-OUT programme funded by UKRI and the GOALS programme. Announced by Science Minister Lord Vallance. zurl.co/e2lKw @alzheimersresearchuk.org @alzheimerssoc.bsky.social #BloodBiomarkerChallenge #DPUK #dementia #research

Congratulations to the project team, winners of the HSJ Award for the ‘Best Pharmaceutical Partnership with the NHS’. Dementias Platform UK and Lilly UK collaborated with 4 NHS Trusts. Read more zurl.co/jOkgv

We had lots of interest in these two training events at #Translation2025. Both are excellent ways to build up data research skills. #dementia #cognition #earlydiagnosis #alzheimers #bigdata #datasets #healthdata

There is still time to sign-up for tomorrows @alzheimersresearchuk.org webinar - Widening the search for new dementia treatments - March 18 @ 1:00 pm - 1:45 pm www.dementiaresearcher.nihr.ac.uk/event/wideni...

Tim Little's lived experience talk at #Translation2025 was powerful. Living with Lewy Body dementia, he spoke about invisibility & social isolation. His message: keep researching, but "remember it is for people, not just for research's sake." #DPUK #LivedExperience

Looking forward to the next couple of days at #Translation2025 hosted by @dementiasplatform.bsky.social 🧠 Superb programme of speakers and discussions coming up!
