This is a short report summarising the plenary talk by Professor Bart de Strooper, at the 2017 FENS-Kavli winter symposium. We have tried to capture some of the key points in his lecture on dementia research and we discuss his vision for the new UK Dementia Research Institute (UK DRI). In his talk, Prof. de Strooper encourages us to focus on the multicellular influence on brain dysfunction in dementia and we summarise how the UK DRI is a timely and ambitious, collaborative endevour, aiming to conquer dementia.
