DemaNDs Seminar - 8th June 2026
Dr Calum Hamilton (Â鶹´«Ã½) will present ‘Neurodegenerative and non-degenerative mild cognitive impairment’ (abstract below). Calum will present emerging research from his ARUK Research Fellowship examining the pathological basis of progressive and non-progressive MCI, role of modifiable lifestyle factors, and potential predictors of disease course.
Abstract: Mild cognitive impairment (MCI) has been recognised as an early manifestation of developing neurodegenerative dementias such as Alzheimer's disease (MCI-AD), and dementia with Lewy bodies (MCI-LB). However, many individuals with MCI do not show any progressive worsening towards dementia, which may reflect individual differences in risk/protective factors and pathological severity, or the presence of non-degenerative MCI mimics.
