'Should we be involved in research? Hell, yes!' Love this video from John, thank you for sharing 😊 @AlzScotCPP @S_D_W_G
John, who is living with dementia and has been helping with research, recorded a video for my @NIHRSPCR talk today - please watch it here. He talks so vividly and articulately about living with dementia and why being involved in research is so important youtube.com/watch?v=vfVTtJff…

Three great days at #31AEC virtual conference, and I got to the final session of the final day before I messed up the UK time difference and missed the start of the session 🤦‍♀️
