Race Against Dementia

Race Against Dementia, founded by Sir Jackie Stewart, raises and allocates funds to research in the race to find a prevention or treatment for dementia. Unless something changes, one in three people born today will get dementia and currently there are no disease-modifying treatments. Investment is critically needed. The Race Against Dementia (RAD) Fellowship Programme draws from the most promising early career scientific talent around the world. Collaboration with forward-thinking organisations in Formula One, as well as other innovative organisations, brings the dynamic attitude, dedication and agility of Grand Prix teamwork to drive results in dementia research. The programme not only accelerate the Fellows’ personal research agendas, but also aspires to catalyse a change in dementia research culture globally. The Race Against Dementia Fellows benefit from mentoring with both high tech organisations and a global academic network.
