Dementia: from Neuroscience to Clinical Practice MSc

UCL (University College London)

The Dementia: from Neuroscience to Clinical Practice MSc, offered by the UCL Queen Square Institute of Neurology, tackles one of the biggest global health problems facing society today. It provides research-oriented and cutting-edge training in the study of dementia and its scientific basis, delivered by international leaders in the science and practice of dementia. The programme brings the latest bench-top research findings to the bedside, develops and integrates basic and clinical neuroscience skills, and equips students for future careers in the clinical practice or basic neuroscience of dementia. This course is ideally suited to lab scientists who want to appreciate the clinical and human resonance of neurodegenerative diseases and current concepts and challenges in their diagnosis and management and equally suited to psychologists and clinicians who want to explore the neurobiological foundations of dementia practice and cutting-edge research. A major mission of the course is to inspire dialogue and understanding between the many disciplines that are shaping the future of dementia research and treatment.
