The Scottish Dementia Clinical Research Network (SDCRN)
Promoting Clinical Research in Dementia across Scotland
We are increasing the number of people with dementia and carers in clinical studies in Scotland. We also want more patients and members of the public involved in the network. If you are interested please complete the PPI survey here.
We have a research interest register of volunteers. This is a secure database with details of people who want to be involved in clinical research projects. At present more than 1,500 people have registered their interest in being involved in approved research studies. If you have dementia or you care for someone with dementia and you want to be involved in research studies send your details to us on this form.
A list of the studies approved and supported by the SDCRN can be found here.
Our Winter 2011 newsletter is also available for you to download.
The SDCRN Conference 2012 will be held on 5th & 6th March, 2012 at Huntingtower Hotel near Perth. Day 1 will be for people with dementia and their carers. Day 2 will be for people who work in research. More details are available on our conference page.
