Exploring the challenges and practicalities of how to set-up and deliver a tech and dementia intervention trial. This week we turn the spotlight on tech and dementia research, we have three special podcasts (released on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday), numerous blogs from people researching and using the latest technologies, and updates on the wider field. Our podcasts have all been recorded with early career researchers working across Europe, undertaking research projects aiming to improve the lives of people with dementia and their carers through technology and from the DISTINCT Programme (Dementia: Intersectorial Strategy for Training and Innovation Network for Current Technology). In this show guest host Dr Anna Volkmer talks to Fanny Monnet from Vrije Universiteit Brussel, Josephine Rose Tan from Amsterdam University Medical Centre and Gianna Kohl from University College London. -- In addition to the overview, each guest shares information on their own projects: *Fanny is researching an interactive website for advance care planning (ACP) for people with dementia and their family. *Josephine is a health psychologist evaluating the effectiveness of a person-centred touch-screen based photo-activity for people with advanced dementia. *Gianna is researching the use of technology in disclosure of dementia by the diagnosed individual to their social networks.
