"Dementia is one of our greatest medical challenges, and across the world, researchers are rising to this challenge to improve our understanding of the underlying neurodegenerative diseases. We want to find effective treatments and ultimately find ways to prevent future generations from developing dementia. Our research takes many forms, including using donated human brain tissue from healthy people and those with dementia. In the past this has been challenging, but BDR has been instrumental in providing this much needed resource. Using BDR tissue has given us new insights into the diseases that cause dementia, helping us to make important steps towards the medicines of the future."
