David Llewellyn • 20 Mar 2018
ARUK 2018
Alzheimer’s Disease Dementia

A wide range of factors have been linked to the risk of developing dementia. However, as highlighted here by David Llewellyn, PhD, of the University of Exeter Medical School, Exeter, UK, determining which factors are a cause of dementia, rather than an effect or general sign of ageing, is difficult. This interview was recorded at the Alzheimer’s Research UK (ARUK) Conference 2018, held in London, UK.
