    Dr Amanda Heslegrave, Senior Research Fellow, UK Dementia Research Institute at UCL. I collaborate with clinical researchers to measure biomarkers of neurodegeneration in a variety of biofluids, most topical right now are blood biomarkers which we are able to measure with the use of super sensitive assay technology - @ajh1269

    Dr Josie Jenkinson, Consultant Psychiatrist for Older People, Surrey & Borders Partnership NHS Foundation Trust. I am an NHS doctor and researcher, focusing on long-term specialist continuing care and health services research.
