These auto-generated not very AI emails re journals and conferences are adding to our admin burden, but to get one today inviting me to present our dementia tau PET imaging work at the next climate change conference was a first- the algorithms clearly need serious tweaking.....

Congratulations to Alzheimer's Research UK and 🟧 Hilary Evans-Newton 🟧 for this realistic insight into dementia with Lewy bodies - but most of all thanks to Des and Valli for sharing their very moving story with us. Des puts it superbly 'DLB won't cure itself'. Please support research now.
