Access cutting-edge insights into the world of bioscience and healthcare at The Forum this May.

Speakers and topics confirmed for the two-day festival include:

  • Professor John S. Young on how new technologies are helping people manage their healthcare.
  • Dr Kamar Ameen-Ali on new treatments for Alzheimer’s disease.
  • Dr Ahmad Khundakar offering insights into how dementia has shaped our understanding the mind.
  • Dr Marc Moore examining how mutations within DNA can lead to the formation of brain and nerve tumours in patients.
