Alzheimer’s disease deaths lowest among taxi and ambulance drivers. #BMJ "Findings raise possibility that frequent spatial processing tasks might offer some protection against Alzheimer’s disease" Fulltext: press.psprings.co.uk/bmj/december....

What a wonderful afternoon celebrating the vibrant connection between researchers, students, and the public! We premiered 'Like Yesterday' - a short film where older participants from University of Third Age shared their childhood #memories through #movement. Their reflections deeply moved us.

Loved teaching 'how neurons communicate' to my undergrad & MSc psychology students! We kicked off with a 5-min hands-on activity using pipe cleaners to create neurons -fun and good for our diverse student cohort. Thanks to British Neuroscience Association for the resources! 🧠 #Neuroscience
