Material Detail

Dementia affects over 44 million people worldwide. With an aging population, this figure is expected to double by 2030. How we look after and treat sufferers has implications not only for patients and their carers but also society. All of this also impacts on how, or even if, we do research into the disease. The question is should we undertake research into dementia? Explore the implications of conducting dementia research, take a quiz, and discover if you are for or against dementia research. There is also a poll at the end so you can see how others who viewed this resource responded to the question "Are for or against dementia research?" Contains audio. Part of the Engaging with Dementia public engagement project funded by the Alzheimer's Society for the University of Leeds.
