Rebecca Williams - Gamifying Dementia Research

Rebecca Williams - Gamifying Dementia Research

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

In this blog, Rebecca Williams explores how video games could revolutionise dementia research by combining scientific precision with engaging, naturalistic environments. From Sea Hero Quest to experimental ideas born at the Cognitive Computational Neuroscience conference, she reflects on how gaming might enhance data quality and participant experience. However, she cautions that accessibility and intuitive design are essential to ensure these tools benefit everyone, especially older adults.

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
