🧵1/ The world’s largest-ever clinical trial to slow or stop Parkinson’s disease has officially launched — led by researchers at @UCLIoN and @UniofNewcastle. A major milestone in the fight against neurodegeneration.

💡 This week, the Government's Chief Medical Officer, Prof Chris Whitty, published his 2024 annual report, 'Health in Cities' 🏙️, outlining a broad range of health opportunities and challenges for city populations.
Commenting on the report, Prof Nick Fox, Group Leader, UK DRI at UCL said:
"It is excellent that the Chief Medical Officer's report draws attention to the association between air pollution and dementia. Given the devastating impact of dementia, it is vitally important that we do what we can to reduce any modifiable risks.
While some risk factors such as smoking, high blood pressure, and cholesterol can be addressed at an individual level, others, such as air pollution in cities, require cross-Government action in order to reduce the risk of dementia."

Researchers @UCLIoN, @uclcancer and @TheCrick, including @drimrannoorani, Professor Sonia Gandhi @LabGandhi and Professor @CharlesSwanton, have embarked on a new project named RAPID, to establish a causal link between air pollution and #dementia ucl.ac.uk/news/2024/oct/rese…

We know that air pollution contributes to neurodegenerative diseases, but we still need to find out how.
Find out more about the new collaborative project by @SwantonLab and @LabGandhi supported by @RacingDementia and @RosetreesT ⤵️

There is a crisis in clinical academia in the UK. We talk of the need to expand medical schools, embed research into the NHS to improve care, & the importance of a vibrant life sciences sector for the economy of the UK, & yet we seem unable to tackle the underlying issues 1/9
