Dr Donald Lyall - What Adrian Newey Can Teach Dementia Researchers
Dr Donald Lyall narrates his blog written for Dementia Researcher.
In this guest blog, Donald draws lessons from legendary F1 designer Adrian Newey and the Race Against Dementia summit. Reflecting on Newey’s philosophy of learning from failure, teamwork, data integrity, and time for focused thought, Lyall shows how these principles can inform dementia research. By connecting motorsport precision with scientific collaboration, he highlights how structured creativity and belief in the mission can accelerate progress in diagnosis, prevention, and treatment.
