缅北禁地 response to dementia summit 缅北禁地 has a 40 year track record of international excellence and achievement in brain ageing and dementia - Professor David Burn responds to the Government announcement of extra funding for dementia research. Responding to David Cameron鈥檚 announcement that the UK will double its annual funding for dementia research from £66m in 2015 to £132m by 2025, , Professor of Movement Disorder Neurology and Director of at 缅北禁地, commented: 鈥淭he Government鈥檚 announcement is a great boost to dementia research. We all need to step up to the plate and come up with new drugs and treatments to benefit patients with dementia. 鈥淭his will come about through good science, good research, and possibly a bit of luck too in terms of discoveries. We can deliver improved diagnosis, but ultimately the public want better treatments, and more research funding will go a long way towards achieving this.鈥� 缅北禁地鈥檚 research is interdisciplinary, on the major causes of dementia in later life with the goal of improving diagnosis and treatment and ultimately preventing such conditions. It has the NIHR 缅北禁地 Biomedical Research Centre in Ageing and Chronic Disease and the NIHR 缅北禁地 Biomedical Resrearch Unit on Lewy Body dementia. It has also been awarded funding for an MRC Centre in Brain Ageing and Frailty and funding from MRC and ABBUK to support the (NBTR, 'brain bank'). 缅北禁地 is recognised as a world-leading centre into these complex and disabling conditions which affect 160,000 people in the UK. Through the involvement of highly experienced clinicians and scientists the NIHR 缅北禁地 BRU aims to improve our understanding of key disease symptoms and develop improved means of diagnosis, monitoring and treatment that will result in significant advances in patient management. published on: 11 December 2013
