Dear All,
Ever wonder what might be behind Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, ALS and many more neurodegenerative diseases? Could it be misfolded proteins?
Neurodegenerative diseases discussion - Idealab - Journal club - Tomorrow (Wed) 5.30pm PST Online video conference
Tomorrow (Wednesday) at 5.30pm PST, I'll be leading a discussion, co-hosted by Nina on Self-propagation of pathogenic protein aggregates in neurodegenerative diseases and I would love to have anyone that has experience or interest in the Neurodegenerative diseases to join us for broad ranging discussions! Please feel free to sign up below for the free Idealab discussion co-hosted by Nina and several Biohacker spaces/groups:
Dedicating this discussion to Les Halpin:
I'd also like to dedicate this discussion to the patients who are suffering and need our help in finding cures to these terminal diseases and in particular a friend of mine, Les Halpin, who passed away at the weekend due to ALS. Les was a serial entrepreneur who funded a lot of research on ALS, was my fellow co-founder at Halpin Neurosciences (which led to the identification of J147 by Eric Valor for ALS) and he also developed the Halpin Protocol to accelerate the development of therapies for life threatening diseases in the UK.
Come and join us for a discussion on Neurodegenerative diseases, protein misfolding and therapeutic interventions tomorrow!
All the best,
Ryan
