Dr Jodi Watt - Where LGBTQIA+ identities intersect with dementia

Dr Jodi Watt, narrating a new blog they wrote for the Dementia Researcher website.

In this blog, Jodi addresses the lack of inclusion of LGBTQIA+ identities in dementia research and the associated disparities faced by LGBTQIA+ older adults living with dementia, discussing the multifaceted effects of discrimination, the challenges in healthcare and support systems, the impact of the AIDS crisis, and the need for more inclusive research, education, and practice in order to provide better care and support for individuals living with dementia under the LGBTQIA+ umbrella.

Happy PRIDE Month!

Dr Jodi Watt is a Postdoctoral Researcher at University of Glasgow. Jodi's academic interests are in both healthy ageing and neurodegenerative diseases of older age, and they are currently working on drug repurposing for dementia. Previously they worked on understanding structural, metabolic and physiological brain changes with age, as measured using magnetic resonance imaging. As a queer and neurodiverse person, Jodi is also incredibly interested in improving diversity and inclusion practices both within and outside of the academic context.
