Funded Activity Summary

This research is aimed at understanding the ways in which age-related vascular disease affecting the brain leads to walking difficulty, cognitive impairment and falls in older people. It is also designed to discover potentially modifiable risk factors for such vascular disease. Ultimately the goal of this research is to design and conduct trials of interventions aimed at slowing the process of vascular brain ageing.
