Alzheimer's Disease and Brain Resilience (ADBR)

I am pleased to more formally organize the Alzheimer’s Disease and Brain Resilience (ADBR) AWG. The overall goal is to look for commonalities between space and AD in human and rodent research, and then determine methods to facilitate resilience against neurodegeneration. We are just getting started and organized, so would love new members and people to volunteer to help! Please DM me or join our bi-weeklly meetings on Mondays at 12:15 (Pacific Time) - Next meeting on Jan 13th. Event will show in your Calendar

Hi Windy:

Unfortunately I have a meeting already scheduled on Oct 21st .

But I will be able to join from following meeting.

Also can you please give me access to my Google drive – kmitra@go.fit.edu

I look forward to attending this meeting.

Thank you.

Best,

Kunal Mitra

I am very interested in this because of the overlaps with mitochondrial disease with neurodegenerative disease. Mitochondrial stress is the primary mechanism for absorbing the low dose LEO radiation, via radiation induced ROS/electrolysis. I do biophysical sensing and mitochondrial biophysics… computational biophysics.

Dear Windy, I would like to participate as observer at personal capacity, even I do collaborate with AEM, I have a personal practice of research focusing on space medicine. Alzheimer is one of our areas of interest at Centro de Rehabilitacion Neuropsicologica and would be great for future experiment proposals.

Fantastic, come when you can! I think you should have access to the drive now. I am currently just getting organized so please let me know where you want to get involved, or if you want to see a few meetings and go from there, that is fine too.

You are welcome to come and observe. As there are so many complicated components to AD, happy to take comments and suggestions on the way.

Yes! I agree about the mitochondrial stress. This will be an area of focus. Do you want to help out with that?

Hi Windy!
I am really interested in joining this group.
Unfortunately it will be difficult for me to make the meetings as I’m currently a high school student and have school at the same time.
What can I do to become involved?
Thanks!
