The purpose of the role is to support Swansea University’s role within the Dementias Platform UK (DPUK) collaboration, a £53 million pound public-private Medical Research Council funded endeavour to create a wide reaching and innovative dementias research facility, incorporating different research disciplines from stem-cell research to data analysis. DPUK is a world leading resource for person focussed dementias research designed to fast-track scientific knowledge, treatments and the prevention of the disease. Over the past couple of years, DPUKs neuroimaging collection has rapidly grown, as well as project applications to use this data.
