 n\nJoin us for the *Cambridge AI in Medicine Seminar Series*\, hosted by t
 he *Cancer Research UK Cambridge Centre* and the *Department of Radiology 
 at Addenbrooke’s*. This series brings together leading experts to explor
 e cutting-edge AI applications in healthcare—from disease diagnosis to d
 rug discovery. It’s a unique opportunity for researchers\, practitioners
 \, and students to stay at the forefront of AI innovations and engage in d
 iscussions shaping the future of AI in healthcare.\n\nThis month’s semin
 ar will be held on *Wednesday 28 May 2025\, 12-1pm at the Jeffrey Cheah Bi
 omedical Centre (Main Lecture Theatre)\, University of Cambridge* and *str
 eamed online via Zoom*. A light lunch from Aromi will be served from 11:45
 . The event will feature the following talk:\n\n*_AI for neuroimaging in d
 ementia_ - Dr Timothy Rittman\, Senior Clinical Research Associate\, Depar
 tment of Clinical Neurosciences\, University of Cambridge*\n\nTimothy Ritt
 man is an Alzheimer's Research UK Senior Fellow\, Senior Clinical Research
  Associate at the University of Cambridge and Honorary Consultant Neurolog
 ist at Addenbrookes Hospital. His research centres around neurodegenerativ
 e tauopathies\, combining neuroimaging\, cognitive assessments and neuropa
 thology to understand how these diseases affect the whole brain. He also h
 as an interest in translating methods from artificial intelligence and big
  data for use in memory clinics\, and leads the Quantitative MRI in NHS Me
 mory Clinics (QMIN-MC) study collecting real world data for validation of 
 AI models. Tim co-leads the DEMON dementia network's Imaging Working group
  and is an adviser to the World Young Leaders in Dementia. He is a consult
 ant in the Addenbrookes Memory Clinic\, and leads a clinic for people with
  Progressive Supranclear Palsy and Corticobasal Degeneration\, in addition
  to co-leading a dementia genetics clinic.\n\n*Abstract*: Novel biomarkers
  for early detection and prognosis in dementia are urgently needed\, parti
 cularly with the advent of potentially disease modifying treatments. AI ap
 proaches to neuroimaging are promising\, but require real world validation
 . This talk will cover the Quantitative MRI in NHS Memory Clinics (QMIN-MC
 ) study\, and how it is collecting real world data to bridge the gap betwe
 en research and clinical application.\n\nThis is a hybrid event so you can
