Doctoral Training
Through our doctoral students, we aim to create future leaders in dementia research and dementia care
Our PhD projects focus on improving experiences, care, health, and wellbeing of people affected by dementia and/or ageing, as well as on improving brain health and reducing risk of developing health conditions.
We provide opportunities for students to discuss research with each other, Centre for Applied Dementia Studies staff and experts by experience, and give all students an opportunity to join staff an our annual Writing Retreat.
