"Thinking time —the time needed to concentrate without interruptions has always been central to scholarly work. It is essential to designing experiments, compiling data, assessing results, reviewing literature and, of course, writing. Yet, [it] is often undervalued."

Memory loss as we age is normal; everyone forgets things now and then!

But what are the indicators of something worse? #Dementia researcher Samrah Ahmed's talk at the @uniofreading.bsky.social #CommunityFestival could help you spot the warning signs.
