Dementia with Lewy bodies
Cambridge dementia researchers take to Zoom to share findings with public
Dementia researchers from the University of Cambridge are inviting the public to join a free online event on Tuesday 4 August, to hear about progress being made in dementia research. Experts from the University of Cambridge will provide new insights into identifying the very earliest stages of dementia with Lewy bodies. The free online event…
