About

Dr Miriam Vignando is an Alzheimer’s Research UK Research Fellow at King’s College London Centre for Neuroimaging Sciences. Her research hopes to uncover the reasons why some people are more likely to develop dementia faster than others when they have the same diagnosis, and why people follow different disease trajectories. Her work uses neuroimaging, predictive models, and computational modelling to bring together brain imaging and clinical data from people with dementia, to spot patterns in progression.

Seeing What Isn’t There: Visual Hallucinations In Parkinson’s
Parkinson’s disease is a neurodegenerative disorder primarily known for its motor symptoms. However, a substantial proportion of people living with Parkinson’s have a wide range of non-motor symptoms, among which visual hallucinations are very frequent. Approximately 60% of patients are estimated to develop this symptom within 12 years of diagnosis. Dementia can be defined as a decline of thinking skills (for example, memory, language) that significantly interferes with daily life.
