Ask Your Mentor

Dementia Researcher

Sciences

Fréquence : 1 épisode/15j. Total Éps: 11

The Ask Your Mentor Podcast from Dementia Researcher and Alzheimer's Research UK. In this show mentees interview their mentors, discussing their careers, decisions they made along the way, triumphs and mistakes - sharing their lessons and top-tips to have a successful career in dementia research. Mentoring helps mentees tap into the knowledge of those with more experience to learn faster than they would on their own - and in this podcast we hope the experiences of the mentors can help our audience grow and develop as independant researchers. https://www.dementiaresearcher.nihr.ac.uk

Ask Your Mentor - Dr Ian Harrison

Saison 1 · Épisode 9

vendredi 14 juillet 2023 • Durée 47:23

Ask Your Mentor Podcast, from Dementia Researcher, in association with Alzheimer’s Research UK (ARUK). Mentees interviewing their mentors, talking careers, lessons learned and what they’ve discovered, that could help you forge a successful career in dementia research. In this podcast we welcome back Dr Josie Fullerton from University of Glasgow, this time as a mentee, proving that even mentors need mentors. Josie chats with Dr Ian Harrison, Senior Research Fellow from University College London. Josie works on understanding the role of extracellular vesicles in stroke and hypertension. She is particularly passionate about the progression of Early Career Researchers, helping others to achieve their full potential and horse riding! Ian looks at the function of the glymphatic system in the brain, responsible for the clearance of protein solutes from the brain parenchyma. His lab is investigating the role of this system in neurodegenerative disease, to see if it is responsible for the accumulation of misfolded protein in disease like Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s, and test whether we can alter its function as a therapy in these disorders.

Ask Your Mentor - Dr Julie Simpson

Saison 1 · Épisode 8

jeudi 29 juin 2023 • Durée 51:40

Ask Your Mentor Podcast, from Dementia Researcher, in association with Alzheimer’s Research UK (ARUK). Mentees interviewing their mentors, talking careers, lessons learned and what they’ve discovered, that could help you forge a successful career in dementia research. In this podcast experienced postdoc researcher Dr Aisling McFall, Postdoctoral Research Associate at University of Glasgow interviews her mentor Dr Julie Simpson, Senior Lecturer at The University of Sheffield. Aisling works on a group of receptors called muscarinic receptors which are the target of one of the most commonly used drugs in the treatment of Alzheimer’s disease. Specifically, she studies the M1 muscarinic receptor because this subtype is highly expressed in the brain and has been shown to be involved in cognition. The overall aim being to design better drugs for Alzheimer’s disease with fewer side effects. Julie's main research interests are identifying and understanding neuroinflammatory contributions to ageing and dementia, particularly age-associated white matter pathology. Her research primarily focusses on the detailed immunohistological characterisation and gene expression profiling of specific cell populations in the ageing brain.

Ask Your Mentor - Dr Kamar Ameen-Ali

Saison 1 · Épisode 5

jeudi 27 avril 2023 • Durée 52:53

Ask Your Mentor Podcast, from Dementia Researcher, in association with Alzheimer’s Research UK (ARUK). Mentees interviewing their mentors, talking careers, lessons learned and what they’ve discovered, that could help you forge a successful career in dementia research. In this podcast PhD Student Elizabeth (Lizzie) English from University of Cambridge interviews her mentor (and regular Dementia Researcher Blogger) ⁠Dr Kamar Ameen-Ali, Lecturer at Teeside University. Lizzie is a PhD candidate at University of Cambridge and a proud first-generation student. Her PhD project is attempting to characterise disease-associated protein aggregates throughout the time-course of Alzheimer’s Disease, in terms of aggregate size, shape, number and brain region localisation, through single-molecule fluorescence microscopy methods. I hope to investigate the potential toxicity mechanisms of these aggregates, to aid understanding of the causes of AD onset and progression. Kamar is a Lecturer in Biomedical Science at Teesside University & Affiliate Researcher at Glasgow University. In addition to teaching, Kamar is exploring how neuroinflammation following traumatic brain injury contributes to the progression of neurodegenerative diseases that lead to dementia.

Ask Your Mentor - Professor Patrick Lewis

Saison 1 · Épisode 3

vendredi 7 avril 2023 • Durée 44:29

Ask Your Mentor, a new podcast from Dementia Researcher, in association with Alzheimer’s Research UK (ARUK). Mentees interviewing their mentors, talking careers, lessons learned and what they’ve discovered, that could help you forge a successful career in dementia research. In this podcast Dr Chris Henstridge, Principle Investigator from University of Dundee interviews his mentor Patrick Lewis, Professor of Neuroscience at the Royal Veterinary College at University of London. Chris grew up on the far north coast of Scotland and this beautiful location instilled his interest in nature and biology. He completed his PhD in Dundee and the city has been an important part of his life ever since, and in 2020 he established his lab there. Chris has always enjoyed travelling and spent 4 years living and working in Budapest, as a PostDoc. He has a very supportive wife and two young kids and they're soon to add a dog to the mix. If his daughter gets her way, the dog will be named after her favourite kids TV character, Makka Pakka! Chris enjoys the challenges of an academic career, and he tries hard to ensure that my career runs on his terms. Patrick moved around in neurodegeneration research quite a bit, starting off investigating Alzheimer’s disease before doing a PhD on prion diseases, then moving into Parkinson’s research (which is where most, but not all, of his current interests lie). And now he is based at a veterinary college, which has provided him with a very different perspective on looking at neurodegeneration.
