Dementia Researcher

In this week’s show we’re chatting about those very early stages of a PhD. Those first few months, when you have taken the leap from following a Masters / Grad school fairly rigid format, to the new and often uncertain place of PhD Study. Adam Smith hosts the show, and is joined by four PhD Students who are all in their first year. They discuss the excitement of starting, transition to PhD learning, supervisors, pressure and mental health, good work habits and much more. If you’re in the first year, we are sure there will be aspects you recognise from this discussion, and the reassurance that you are not alone – with a few tips along the way. This week’s guests are: Chloe Tulip, from Swansea University, researching sleep and dementia. Tiffeny James, from University College London, investigating equity in service provision for people with dementia and their families Brendan Commane from the Royal College of Art, studying care home environments and art. Felicity Slocombe from Loughborough University st
