Dr Banerjee aims to set up three studies to improve our understanding of how damaging proteins in the brain may increase the risk of stroke. This can lead the way for researchers to find out how we can help more people avoid damage to their brain caused by these proteins.

Treatment for haemorrhagic stroke involves stopping bleeding and reducing brain pressure. Learn about the treatment types and rehabilitation.

Carotid artery disease can increase your risk of stroke. Learn how narrowed arteries affect blood flow to your brain and the treatments that can help.

Treatment for ischaemic stroke aims to restore blood flow to your brain. Learn about thrombolysis, thrombectomy and medication to reduce your risk of another.

The Stroke Association has funded research to help understand what happens in the brain during a stroke, identify who is most at risk of stroke and how we can reduce their risk.
