A photo taken from the perspective of someone attending a conference. There is a laptop set up in front of the camera, with the title slide 'Addressing dementia diagnosis inequalities' on its screen. It sits on a glossy wooden table, which also has a booklet for the conference sitting next to the laptop. In the background is a large presentation screen with a slide suggesting questions for a roundtable discussion.
A great day at the Nottingham Centre for Dementia Showcase which focused on ‘Rethinking dementia: collaboration, co-design and change’. A great mix of presenters and an interesting table discussion! Alice presented work from her PhD on ‘addressing dementia diagnosis inequalities’.

A graphic showing the white DETERMIND study logo. The logo is a drawing of a wooden signpost pointing in two directions with flowers underneath it. On the arrow signs there are drawings symbolising care and money. The logo is on a green background with white text curved around it saying 'The DETERMIND Study celebrates International Day of Older Persons'
Happy #InternationalDayOfOlderPersons! It is rare that the time and efforts that older people put towards caring for others are truly appreciated. So, from our DETERMIND team, we'd like to send a huge thank you and encourage others to join in with the celebrations :)

We're closing off World Alzheimer's Month with a look back at this September.
This month, we visited 20 homes to interview people living with dementia and those who support them. We travelled to 16 areas across the UK, attended 5 conferences and expanded our staff team with a few new members :)

A winding countryside road through vast, open and hilly countryside. There are old wall ruins on the right of the road and green trees and heath on the left. There are several sheep dotted throughout the landscape
A sheep is standing in the heath looking at the camera and is surrounded by hilly countryside. A winding road is visible in the background. The clouds in the sky are grey and dramatic.
A road runs alongside hilly purple and green heathland. The landscape is dotted with jagged rock, small trees and bracken.
The Gateshead research team recently visited participants in a beautiful town in the North Pennines. Winding roads led the team on a rural research adventure, where they were warmly welcomed by the local community.

One of our London research assistants recently presented at the IFPE International Congress in Trento. Outside of the DETERMIND study, they are investigating key health outcomes and sociodemographic details of those who access mental health services without a formal diagnosis.

A researcher standing by their poster in a presentation hall. The hall is bright and airy with wooden floors. The researcher is posed just in fromt of their poster, which details characteristics and outcomes of those who don't receive a mental health diagnosis with some brightly coloured graphs and charts.
A researcher presenting a slide at a conference. They are sat down in front of the projection to use the microphone. The presentation slide details standardised mortality ratios in a colourful graph for three cohorts, all of which are significantly higher and worse than a 1:1 ratio.
A mountain poking out in the skyline above the roof to the conference venue. It is almost completely covered in dark green trees, with only some sections of white rocks visible. The sky above it is blue with just one cloud.
The main fountain in Trento's town square. It is large, about 7-8 times the height of a person. The fountain has many statues dotted around its base, with poseidon sat at the top of the fountain with his infamous trident. People are walking by the statue, pausing to take pictures or sitting at its base, enjoying the sun.
I feel very lucky to have attended the IFPE International Congress in Trento to share findings on those accessing mental healthcare services without a diagnosis. It was a really great opportunity to gain an understanding of global mental health epidemiology! Loved Trento a lot too :)

A person is standing in front of a projector screen talking to a small audience. The screen shows a slide with the title 'The DETERMIND study goals: Seldom heard voices' and three bullet points reading 'Amplify seldom heard voices', 'Identify priorities for improving care', and 'Address inequalities'. The presenter looks enthusiastic and happy and the audience are listening intently.
ARUK South Coast Network meeting was a great opportunity to catch up with peers, meet others working in the field and present the exciting next stage of the @determindstudy.bsky.social study! Thanks for a great few days @alzheimersresearchuk.org!

A group of six happy team members, dressed semi-casually, in front of a projector screen. They all work on the DETERMIND dementia study together and are stood posing for the photo. On the screen is the title of the event 'Empower Dementia Network + Sandpit Event'. It is surrounded by illustrations of some trees and two characters holding flowers with a butterfly flying between them.
What did you do after the bank holiday? We reunited our team to spend the day planning an application at the @empowerdementianet.bsky.social Sandpit Event. It was a real joy to meet others passionate about making a difference to the lives of those living with dementia and those who support them :)

A researcher is standing next to their research poster at a scientific conference, they are smiling and holding a coffee. The title of the poster is Predicting Delayed Diagnosis in Dementia: The Impact of Coping Style.
PhD student @isaac-dc.bsky.social had a great time in Toronto at their first @alzassociation.bsky.social international conference. They enjoyed learning about new community-based interventions and co-designed respite programs, as well as presenting their own research and lots of poutine! #AAIC25

A cartoon drawing of a wooden sign post with two arms pointing in different directions. One arm of the sign post has a symbol of a hand holding a heart on it, representing care, the other arm of the sign post a pound sign symbol on it. At the base of the sign post is a tuft of grass and two flowers. The word DETERMIND features next to the cartoon in bold capital letters. Underneath this are the words finding a fairer path to dementia care. The cartoon and the text are in the colour green.
Welcome to the DETERMIND research project! We are an ambitious team aiming to find out how we can make dementia care and outcomes in the UK more equal. Keep an eye out for updates on the exciting next stage of the project, new findings, publications, and opportunities to get involved.
