Prize: Election to learned society
Our SDRC Executive Committee advise the SDRC’s strategy. They also take an active role in the day-to-day work of the organisation. Each member of the Executive Committee are researchers and contain representation from different career stages, institutions and research discipline. All SDRC Themes are represented to include researchers that are working to prevent, delay or find treatments for the diseases that cause dementia and also researchers that can help those living with these conditions today. Additionally, Executive Committee members represent the SDRC externally, and each member champions dementia and brain health research more widely at policy level, with funders and across institutions. They also look for opportunities to collaborate with other researchers from different disciplines and themes of dementia research in Scotland.
