Once a year, RADAR-AD project members from different work streams, patient representatives and scientific advisors gather to present the status of their work, discuss challenges and share ideas for future collaboration and output. The 2022 RADAR-AD annual meeting took place on 10 and 11 March, online, due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Around 50 consortium members took part in the discussions during this meeting. The programme for the event included presentations about the progress of the clinical study, the functional domains and modelling work, the RADAR-base data platform and the remote measurement devices used in the project, as well as the ethics and regulatory work done in RADAR-AD.
In addition, members from Alzheimer Europe discussed the work on patient engagement in RADAR-AD and the activities of the Patient Advisory Board (PAB) appointed for the project. The PAB involves people with mild cognitive impairment, dementia (predominantly Alzheimer’s dementia) and their carers (e.g. family members and friends). The RADAR-AD PAB has been actively involved in several activities since the start of project in January 2019. You can find out more about the PAB members and their work here. Read the full story here.
