Dr Lindsey Sinclair - Why does inclusion matter at scientific conferences?

Dr Lindsey Sinclair narrates her blog written for Dementia Researcher.

In this blog, Lindsey reflects on her experiences attending conferences and the growing efforts to make them more inclusive. From accessible venues and quiet spaces to virtual options and support for parents, she highlights positive changes while urging organisers to go further. Drawing on personal anecdotes and practical examples, the blog argues that inclusive conferences aren’t just fairer—they improve the quality of science itself.
