Therapy for Neurodegenerative Disease with Dr Paul Chazot, in celebration of legacies

We look forward to bringing our Dunelm Circle legacy donors and friends of the University together to join Dr Paul Chazot (Associate Professor in the Department of Biosciences and Fellow of the British Pharmacological Society & Wolfson Research Institute for Health and Wellbeing). Paul has developed new clinical development programmes over the last 20 years with his captivating research having relevance to over 2 billion people worldwide. 

In this talk, Paul will showcase his work in drug and light therapy for neurodegenerative disease, which could provide options for the treatment of Alzheimer’s Disease, Parkinson’s Disease and Motor Neurone Disease. You might have read about his infrared light therapy helmet in the news. Paul will also touch on other areas of his research including a trial to treat post-concussion syndrome, which is of particular relevance to the military and the sports world, and promising research into drug and non-drug chronic pain management, the latter which is already saving NHS resources and improving quality of life for many.

The event will consist of a 40 minute talk, followed by a 15 minute Q & A.
