Podcast appearances and mentions of andy josephson

Representative Andy Josephson was born and raised here in Anchorage, and although he is the son of former Alaska state Senator and Anchorage Assembly member Joe Josephson, Andy didn't initially think politics was for him. In 2012, though, he followed in his father's footsteps getting elected to the Alaska State House where he represented the UMED district until 2022. After the redistricting process he ran to represent the Taku-Campbell District; he was successful, and now with 11 legislative sessions under his belt, he is the most senior Democrat in the House minority caucus. He currently serves on the coveted finance committee.

Alzheimer disease causes progressive neurologic deterioration and is reasonably common in elderly patients. It is characterized by specific patterns of memory loss, which progressively worsens and for which there is no treatment. Recent drug trials have been disappointing in that promising medications have failed to affect the disease. Interesting new hypotheses have emerged from basic science research suggesting that the neurofibrillary tangles characteristic of Alzheimer brain lesions form in response to infection of the brain. Interview with Rudolph Tanzi, PhD, of Harvard University; Berislav Zlokovic, MD, PhD, of the University of Southern California; and Andy Josephson, MD, of the University of California San Francisco, and editor of JAMA Neurology.
