Karan graduated from the University of Salford with a First Class Honours Degree in Health Sciences in 2006. Her interest in ethnicity and dementia led to her doctoral study at Keele University where she researched how personal histories and migration experiences influence experiences of caring for a person with dementia for Sikhs living in Wolverhampton. As a result of her research, Karan brings a depth of knowledge about the experiences and challenges for those living with dementia in minority ethnic communities. In addition to this, Karan is also developing creative therapies for such groups. Outside of work, Karan manages a Bhangra dance company called ‘Eclectic Dancers’ and is using her dance skills to develop dance therapies for Asians with dementia as part of her role at the Association for Dementia Studies.
