Acerca de esta escucha
Dr Jodi Watt, narrating a new blog they wrote for the Dementia Researcher website.
In this blog, Jodi Watt challenges the dominant narrative around dementia prevention. While lifestyle factors like diet and exercise are often emphasised, she argues these overlook deep-rooted structural inequalities. Jodi explores how factors such as poverty, racism, disability, housing, and access to healthcare shape exposure to risk and capacity to prevent dementia. She calls for a shift away from individual responsibility and towards systemic change, advocating for prevention strategies grounded in equity, lived experience, and justice.Find the original text, and narration here on our website.

Dr Jodi Watt is a Postdoctoral Researcher at University of Glasgow. Jodi's academic interests are in both healthy ageing and neurodegenerative diseases of older age, and they are currently working on drug repurposing for dementia. Previously they worked on understanding structural, metabolic and physiological brain changes with age, as measured using magnetic resonance imaging. As a queer and neurodiverse person, Jodi is also incredibly interested in improving diversity and inclusion practices both within and outside of the academic context.
