Dr Prerana Sabnis, narrates her blog written for Dementia Researcher.

Prerana's first article (also published in Portuguese) for Dementia Researcher discussing some of the latest research led by Dr Aida Suárez-González on the impact of COVID-19 on people with rare forms of dementia. Despite the studies limitations, the findings of this study highlight the importance of making social and cognitive stimulation, and specialised therapeutic support more accessible during subsequent lockdowns. Providing adequate support to vulnerable populations such as people with dementia is imperative for their mental and physical well-being, independent of COVID-19.
