Meet Esra Hassan, Brighton and Sussex Medical School

Meet Esra Hassan, Brighton and Sussex Medical School

Last week we attended the Alzheimer's Disease International Conference in London. 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.

In this short interview we talk with Esra Hassan, PhD Student from Brighton and Sussex Medical School. During her MSc Esra completed research in the areas of neuroimaging to detect cognitive biomarkers in anxiety disorders, molecular cancer biology working on Glioblastoma multiforme cells, looking at the endocannabinoid system in Parkinson’s disease and research positions in cognitive neuropsychology. Now she is currently working to establish the drivers and determinants of dementia attitudes in adolescents and understanding how these attitudes form and change over time.

Find out more about Esra and her work on our website:
