Dr Clarissa Giebel - Learning about dementia care in India

Dr Clarissa Giebel narrates her blog written for Dementia Researcher.

Clarissa's July travels proved rewarding, from presenting dementia care inequalities at the IPA Congress to establishing collaborations in India. Exploring NIMHANS' dementia care in Bangalore gave her insights impossible to glean from articles. Engaging with clinicians highlighted challenges including stigma and financial barriers. Her in-person talk sparked crucial discussions, contrasting the depth of personal interaction with virtual methods. Observing the city's markets and elderly population further enriched her perspective. This journey emphasised the value of in-person experiences for profound research insights and learning.
