Verbatim
“The review 'does not clarify the evidence, it blurs it' and the 'flaw in this review is fundamental'. Many early programmes failed, but newer antibodies have delivered modest yet real clinical benefit.”
“I am honoured by this recognition, which I see as a tribute to the many colleagues who helped establish the UK Dementia Research Institute and to our shared commitment to advancing dementia research for the benefit of patients and society.”

Recent UK press coverage of their topics, not necessarily citing them directly.
Professors, researchers and think-tank analysts quoted on the strength of their research rather than a clinical role. Citations are counted by an automated scan of UK press coverage and may be incomplete. Roles, biographies and contact details are researched and human-reviewed before they appear here; anything not yet reviewed is simply absent rather than shown unverified.
