Adam Smith narrates his blog written for Dementia Researcher. In this guest blog, Adam offers a view of what to expect from the Alzheimer's Association International Conference (AAIC) 2025. Drawing on past experiences, he outlines why this global event matters, what makes it unique, and how first-timers can make the most of it without becoming overwhelmed. From orientation lounges to poster sessions and career development opportunities, Adam provides reassurance and practical advice for navigating the intensity of a week at one of the biggest dementia research conferences in the world – whether you're attending in person or online. Find the original text, and narration here on our website. https://www.dementiaresearcher.nihr.ac.uk/blog-aaic-2025-big-busy-and-worth-it/ -- Adam Smith was born in the north, a long time ago. He wanted to write books, but ended up working in the NHS, and at the Department of Health. He is now Programme Director in the Office of the NIHR National Director for Dementia Research (which probably sounds more important than it is) at University College London. He has led a number of initiatives to improve dementia research (including this website, Join Dementia Research & ENRICH), as well as pursuing his own research interests. In his spare time, he grows vegetables, builds Lego & spends most of his time drinking too much coffee and squeezing technology into his house. -- Enjoy listening?

In the span of a few days, two houses of worship in Minneapolis are facing threats and vandalism.Minneapolis Police are currently investigating the defacing of Temple Israel, a synagogue in Minneapolis. On Monday, a suspect spray-painted swastikas on the doors and pillar of the building. On Friday, Abubakar As-saddique Islamic Center, or AAIC in Minneapolis received an online threat, threatening violence to members of worship at the mosque. Minneapolis police determined the threat to be unfounded, but it still contributed to fear and concern in the Islamic community. Rabbi Marcia Zimmerman, the senior rabbi at Temple Israel and Osman Ahmed, Director of Advocacy with Minnesota's Chapter of the Council on American-Islamic Relations joined Minnesota Now host Nina Moini to talk about their response to the threats.

Second-quarter earnings season continues with Big Pharma beating Wall Street expectations, the author of an encrypted email sent to BioSpace has a proposal for Moderna and Merck, Roche and Viking seek quicker entry to the obesity market, and AAIC is in full swing. As July comes to a close, biopharma second-quarter earnings continue to roll in with Pfizer, Merck, AbbVie, AstraZeneca and many more reporting. So far, everything is coming up roses with most major companies beating Wall Street expectations. But every rose has its thorn and for biopharma executives this has long been drug price negotiations under the Inflation Reduction Act. Recently, however, drugmakers have expressed confidence that the IRA will not greatly impact their bottom lines. Speaking of bottom lines, in an anonymous email sent to the CFOs of Merck and Moderna and shared with BioSpace, a shareholder made the case that Merck should buy Moderna out of its 50/50 partnership involving Keytruda and their shared investigational personalized cancer vaccine. Meanwhile, M&A activity picked up in the second quarter of 2024 with nearly $18 billion changing hands, according to J.P. Morgan. Q3 has been no stranger to deals so far, either, with Boehringer Ingelheim acquiring Nerio Therapeutics for up to $1.3 billion to boost its immuno-oncology pipeline, and GSK and Flagship Pioneering striking a potential $7B deal to develop a portfolio of novel vaccines and medicines starting with immunology and respiratory treatments. Pfizer raised its full-year outlook after reporting positive Q2 results and announced layoffs this week at two North Carolina sites, with a total of 210 workers losing their jobs. Cuts at the Sanford, N.C. gene therapy manufacturing site come on the heels of Pfizer's Duchenne muscular dystrophy gene therapy failed a Phase III trial. On the obesity front, both Viking Therapeutics and Roche indicated that they will seek entry to the market more quickly than originally anticipated, and the FDA issued a warning on Monday about possible safety risks associated with compounded versions of Novo Nordisk's semaglutide. And the Alzheimer's Association International Conference (AAIC) this week revealed some interesting nuggets, including long-term data regarding Eisai and Biogen's Leqembi, and a small Phase IIb study showing that Novo's GLP-1 liraglutide slowed cognitive decline in Alzheimer's patients by up to 18%.
