UCL
Research at the UK DRI at UCL covers the journey from the person living with dementia to the laboratory and back again - with improved diagnosis and potential therapies put to the test.
ExploreOur hub plus six centres are hosted in leading universities across the UK, bringing people together for shared scientific inspiration whilst making the most of cutting-edge tools and infrastructure locally.
Our researchers are connected, wherever their labs are based. Ideas, tools, technologies and data flow between UK DRI teams.
