Rebecca Williams - Apathy Research: Why Should We Bother?

Rebecca Williams, narrates her blog written for the Dementia Researcher website.

Did you know that Apathy represents an early marker of cognitive decline and brain changes in presymptomatic frontotemporal dementia? Did you also know that Apathy is particularly common in patients with behavioral variant frontal temporal lobe dementia (bvFTD), and is a disabling noncognitive symptom of dementia that has profound consequences for morbidity, mortality, and caregiver burden? In this blog Rebecca explains Apathy, and her research into understanding the condition in dementia.

Rebecca Williams is PhD student at the University of Cambridge. Though originally from ‘up North’ in a small town called Leigh, she did her undergraduate and masters at the University of Oxford before defecting to Cambridge for her doctorate researching Frontotemporal dementia and Apathy. She now spends her days collecting data from wonderful volunteers, and coding. Outside work, she plays board games, and is very crafty. @beccasue99
