Meet Dr Ian Harrison, University College London

This week we've been attending the Alzheimer's Research UK Conference in Brighton. We took time out from the programme to talk with early career dementia researchers to ask them about their work, the challenges they have faced and how they overcame them, and to share a highlight from the conference.

In this short interview we talk with Dr Ian Harrison, Senior Research Fellow at University College London. Ian's work looks at the function of the glymphatic system in the brain, responsible for the clearance of protein solutes from the brain parenchyma. Ian and his lab are investigating the role of this system in neurodegenerative disease, to see if it is responsible for the accumulation of misfolded protein in disease like Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s, and test whether we can alter its function as a therapy in these disorders.

Find out more about Ian and his work on our website:
