8 months ago
This is a podcast that will help you navigate the complexities of dementia. It’s presented by two friends who come at the subject from two very different perspectives. 

Professor Julie Williams has spent most of her working life trying to understand Alzheimer's disease and other forms of dementia. Meanwhile, Justine Pickering understands the colossal human cost all too well. She lost her mum to a rare form of young-onset dementia before founding a unique respite project for families coping with the emotional toll of the disease.         

In Two Minds brings you the highs and lows of the shared experiences of dementia. We’ll hear inspiring special guests and all about current research and future treatments.

Together, we’ll explore the challenges of coping with this disease and how to live well following diagnosis.

Understanding Alzheimer’s Disease
Our very own Professor Julie Williams provides insight into the current state of Alzheimer’s research, focusing on the role of genetics and the work being done to tackle the disease.

It is projected that the number of people with Alzheimer’s will rise to 1.4 million by 2040 - primarily due to increased life expectancy - so the importance of understanding the disease has never been so crucial.

Julie expresses optimism about where we are right now and the incredible work being done towards developing therapies that could help manage and slow the progression of Alzheimer’s in the future.

Key Moments:
  • The genetics of Alzheimer's (02:07)
  • How Alzheimer's develops (05:57)
  • The development of Dananibab (09:48)
  • Finding the missing pieces of the jigsaw puzzle (12:09)
  • Looking ahead and being able to predict the disease (23:53)
