I had a fantastic couple of days at the @AlzSocResearch #ECCRetreat this week - meeting fellow @alzheimerssoc-funded researchers, staff from the Alzheimer's Society team and participating in the Mock Grant Board session were my highlights!
The #ECRRetreat has officially started with our attendees experiencing the real dynamics of a funding panel in our Mock Grant Board session, expertly guided by the Alzheimer’s Society Research Grants Team.
