SUMMARY:PUBLIC LECTURE - Brain glue: sticking it to dementia
DESCRIPTION:Brain Glue: Sticking it to Dementia \nWednesday 28 February\, 7.30-8.45pm \nG11\, Henley Business School\, Whiteknights campus \nThis event is free to attend. \nRegistration in advance is not required\, but is recommended as public lectures are often full. Click here to book your place > \nNearly a million people in the UK today are living with dementia. Currently there is no treatment that will prevent\, cure or slow down its progression. To overcome this scientists are now studying not only nerve cells in the brain\, but the so-called glial cells – previously thought to be just the ‘glue’ that sticks other brain cells together. Evidence suggests that these cells could provide insight and even early warning about the onset of disease\, years before clinical symptoms develop. \nThe human brain is the most complex computer we have\, yet we are still discovering the basics of how it works. This lecture will outline some of the challenges in finding treatments for brain diseases\, and explore the potential of glial cells in the fight against Alzheimer’s disease. \nDr Mark Dallas is a Lecturer in Cellular and Molecular Neuroscience at the School of Pharmacy\, University of Reading. He is the Academic Co-Ordinator for the Alzheimer’s Research UK Oxford Network\, Neuroscience Theme Lead for the Physiological Society and sits on the editorial board of Physiology News.
