Dr Yvonne Couch, narrates her blog written for the Dementia Researcher website. Today Yvonne is talking science for, not opinions (although a few may creep in). This particular post was inspired by her recent attendance at an ARUK event. Almost everyone attending was working on clinical cohorts and everyone else, with the exception of Yvonne, was working on iPSCs. So today's blog is about induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSC); what they are, why people use them and what they could be used for in dementia research. Find the original text, and narration here on our website. https://www.dementiaresearcher.nihr.ac.uk/guest-blog-stem-cells/ -- Dr Yvonne Couch is an Alzheimer's Research UK Fellow at the University of Oxford. Yvonne studies the role of extracellular vesicles and their role in changing the function of the vasculature after stroke, aiming to discover why the prevalence of dementia after stroke is three times higher than the average. It is her passion for problem solving and love of science that drives her, in advancing our knowledge of disease. Yvonne has joined the team of staff bloggers at Dementia Researcher, and will be writing about her work and life as she takes a new road into independent research. _____________________________________________________ Enjoy listening?

It's World Alzheimer's Day - a day when we discuss the disease, work to raise awareness and call for action. Today's podcast is a special edition to announce a very important action from Race Against Dementia (RAD) supported by Alzheimer's Research UK, the appointment of four new Research Fellows. In the show we talk to new Chief Executive Bridget Barker, who introduces their newly appointed Fellows. They share their research plans, what they're most looking forward to about the programme and provide a few top tips for those applying for similar positions. Meet the new RAD Fellows: Dr Maura Malpetti, from University of Cambridge. Maura uses multimodal imaging techniques (multi-tracer PET and MRI) integrated with fluid markers, post-mortem validation, and prognostic modelling approaches in frontotemporal lobar degeneration. Dr Aitana Sogorb Esteve, from the UK Dementia Research Institute at University College London. Maura is looking for fluid biomarkers of synaptic dysfunction in genetic FTD and aiming to develop a technique for measuring these synaptic markers in blood. Dr Emily Hill, from University of Warwick. Emily uses detailed electrophysiological approaches to understand the mechanisms underlying tau pathology in neurodegeneration. This work aims to highlight new targets for the treatment of tauopathies like Alzheimer's disease. Dr Wioleta Zelek, from Cardiff University. Wioleta is an Immunologist focussing on the complement system, its biology, roles in disease and in manipulating the system for therapy. Of particular interest is in the terminal pathway of the complement system that generates the highly pro-inflammatory molecules C5a and the membrane attack complex (MAC). The RAD Fellowship has been discussed on the show before, it is unique in providing five years of funding, with research costs, only open to people who have completed their PhD within the past three years, and provided with a whole programme of additional support – from performance coaching, mentoring through to connections to cutting edge industries and Formula One Teams. The charity started Formula One legend Sir Jackie Steward, aims to instil Formula One attitude into scientific research, to accelerating pace discovery, and with these latest appointments they now fund 10 Fellows based in the UK, USA and Australia. In the UK the programme is supported by Alzheimer's Research UK, and the James Dyson Foundation.

As denúncias vêm desde o ano passado, mas agora ganharam visibilidade, e o motivo tem três letras: CPI. A Comissão Parlamentar de Inquérito instalada no Senado vai investigar, apenas nessa seara, 15 potenciais erros da gestão Bolsonaro, entre eles distribuição e prescrição de medicamentos sem eficácia no tratamento da Covid-19. “Um pessoal de Brasília foi à terra yanomami e levou 3 mil quilos de cloroquina”, recorda Junior Hekuari Yanomami, presidente do Conselho Distrital de Saúde Indigenista Yanomami e Ye'kuana, sobre a comitiva oficial que visitou a etnia no meio de 2020. Em entrevista a Renata Lo Prete, ele lembra que, embora o governo tenha mais tarde alegado que o objetivo era tratar malária, a recomendação real era para dar o remédio a qualquer um que apresentasse suspeita de infecção pelo novo coronavírus. “Foi totalmente marketing”, diz Junior. Participa também Daniel Biasetto, repórter do jornal O Globo que localizou documentos públicos em Vilhena (RO), distrito responsável por 144 aldeias da Amazônia Legal, orientando explicitamente o tratamento com o chamado “kit covid”. Daniel exemplifica com o caso de Aruká Juma, que era o último homem de sua etnia e foi vítima da doença. “Tudo indica que Aruká morreu por negligência no tratamento”, diz.

Vítima da Covid, morreu aos 86 anos Aruká Juma, o último homem de sua etnia. Os Juma eram, até a década de 1960, mais de 10 mil, mas uma série de massacres dizimou este povo. Aruká é um dos mais de 960 índios que morreram após a contaminação pelo coronavírus. “O vírus foi levado de fora para dentro porque não há barreira sanitária e barreira de controle”, afirma a historiadora Neidinha Bandeira, pesquisadora da Associação de Defesa Etnoambiental Kanindé, que atua na Amazônia. Neidinha Bandeira e a médica sanitarista Sofia Mendonça, professora da Unifesp e coordenadora do Projeto Xingu, são as convidadas de Natuza Nery neste episódio. Neidinha relata o desafio de levar vacinas e alimentos aos índios de uma aldeia Uru-Eu-Wau-Wau, povo irmão dos Juma: grileiros fecharam a passagem que dá acesso à Terra Indígena e o grupo de atendimento teve que ser escoltado por policiais. Ela também conta o que será das tradições da etnia após a morte de Aruká. “Diante da ameaça de extinção, os herdeiros se autodeterminaram Juma Uru-Eu-Wau-Wau. Ele passou adiante essa ideia de residência, de que o povo não pode deixar de existir”, relata. A sanitarista Sofia Mendonça explica por que nem 30% dos índios que vivem em aldeias foram vacinados, mesmo estando entre os grupos prioritários. “Falta comunicação correta e há muitas fake news, principalmente entre os jovens”. Ela sugere que se forme grupos com pessoas e organizações de confiança para levar informações corretas às aldeias.

Na primeira parte deste episódio, conto a história que meu amigo Rinaldo Sérgio Vieira Arruda postou em sua rede social, sobre um acontecimento muito curioso que ele vivenciou junto aos Rikbaktsa. Então, próximo à publicação, vejo a postagem da Eliane Brum (@brumelianebrum) : “o último Juma morre de covid. enterrem o Brasil / perdemos a vergonha, perdemos o respeito, perdemos a dignidade / perdemos tudo / nos perdemos”. Sinto que devo incluir a nota da APIB (apiboficial.org) ao episódio, honrar a existência e a memória de Aruká, como tantos outros, vítimas dessa tragédia chamada desgoverno genocida, potencializada pela COVID-19. Eu sou Helena Salgado e vc pode acompanhar o TáTó no Instagram procurando por @tatopodcast. Lá vc também encontra, na bio, os links para todos os episódios e o contato, caso queira mandar alguma mensagem. O episódio foi gravado em São Paulo, no verão de 2021, e publicado pelo app Anchor. A vinheta de início é uma interpretação minha pra música “Antônia” (Fabio Torres) e a imagem da capa é uma foto que o Rinaldo tirou do Pudata em 1986. Boa escuta!

His compassion (karuNai) pours (pozhi) like moonlight (nilavu), his face (vadana) is like a moon (madiyan) (=handsome), the one who holds a skull (kApAli). In the anupallavi, the poet continues to describe him as the amazing/wondrous (adbhuta) one that is praised (pORRum/pOTrum) by one and all: by children/cowherds (Ap(b)AlagOpAlam), those (avar) who inhabit this land/earth (talam) that is surrounded (SUr) by the seas (Azhi), kings (bhUpAlar) and the deities/demi-gods that gaurd (pAlakarum) the eight (asTha) directions (dik). The marvellous (arpuda) one who is worshipped by (pOtrum) by the young (bAla) cowherd gOpAlam) (= Krishna?), those from the place (dalattavar) surrounded (shUzh) by the ocean (Azhi), the kings (bhUpAlar) and the keepers (pAlar) (= deities) of the eight (ashta) directions (dik). In the caraNam, SrI sivan goes on to describe him as the one whose matted locks (mASaDayAn) bear (punai) the moon (madi), the gangA (punal - river), and is adorned by konrai, tumbai, and unmattai (Umattai) flowers as well as the sacred aRuk(g)am grass, and a snake (aravam). He is the one whose chest (mArban) is adorned by a garland (mAlai) of heads (talai), one of which is brahmA's (vidhi) fifth head[1]. He wears garments made of skin (tOluDayAn) stripped (uritta) from an elephant (kariyin) and tiger (vempuli). He is the one who holds in his many bright/shining (ilangiDu) hands (kaiyAn) a drum (uDukkai) that sounds (muzhangum) very loudly (adira), a trident (triSUlam), the sacred fire (ank(g)i), and a deer (kurank(g)am). Even the ashes (SAmbal) that cover his skin (tirumEni) all over (muzhudum) seem to shine (tulangum) with the divine lusture that lights him up (dyutimigu) so much so, that this enchanter (mOhana)[2] of the world (jagam) captures (kavazh) the hearts/minds (manam) of women (magaiyar) who cross his path (edir). He whose matted hair (masadaiyAn) is adorned (punai) with the moon (madi), the river (punal) (=Ganga), the snake (aravu), kondrai flower (=Indian laburnum, a yellow flower), tumbai flower (=leucas, a white wildflower), arugam grass and Umattai flower (=datura, a purple flower). He whose chest (mArbAn) is adorned by a garland (mAlai) of Brahma's (vidi) head (talai), he who wears a skin (tOluDaiyAn) skinned (uritta) from a dark (kariya) [alternate : kariyin=of an elephant) mighty tiger (vem puli) . With his hands (kai) shining (ilangidum) with a drum (uDukkai) which makes a startling (adira) loud noise (muzhangum), a trident (tirushUlam), fire (angi) and a deer (kurangam). Worship well (tudi migu) the One who enchants the world (jagan mohana), his sacred body (tiru mEni) shining (tulanga) with ashes (sAmbal), who captures the heart of (manam kavar) the women (mangaiyar) who come before him (edir).

Given the events of 2020, most charities are now thinking more radically about their strategies than ever before. And one option to consider for certain projects is partnering with another charity. In this episode I share an interview I conducted in the summer of 2019 with Lucy Squance, Director of supporter-led fundraising at Alzheimer’s Research UK (ARUK). The subject of our discussion is Dementia Revolution, a collaboration between ARUK and the Alzheimer’s Society, and in particular the record-breaking partnership they achieved with Virgin Money for the London Marathon 2019. Lucy explains that through this collaboration they were able to smash their targets (including, £3.6 million was raised) and achieve other goals they would not have been able to do on their own, so the hard work and risk in working together clearly paid off. In case you are now considering a collaboration, or realise that sooner or later, joining forces with another charity might be the right strategic choice for you, I hope you find value in Lucy’s exploration of the journey and the key lessons she and her colleagues learned. If you’d like more powerful strategies to help you raise funds during the pandemic, then there are lots of different approaches in my new free E-book: Power Through The Pandemic – Seven ways to raise money with major donors, corporates and trusts, even now. You can download it for FREE here: www.brightspotfundraising.co.uk/power If you want to share your ideas about collaborations, or share this episode because you think it will help others – THANK YOU VERY MUCH! - we are both on Linked In and on twitter, where Lucy is @lucysquance and I am @woods_rob. Or do drop me a message via my website - www.brightspotfundraising.co.uk - I’d love to hear from you.

What's possible when a group of creative, motivated, self-driven qualitative researchers find each other? Only time will tell, but if the first meeting of this group is anything to go by, you can expect some quality outputs, which add real value to helping people living with dementia. Dr Jemima Dooley (University of Bristol), Dr Sarah Griffiths, (University of Plymouth) and Anna Volkmer (University College London) work in the field of language and communications, an area which can be particularly challenging for people living with dementia. After becoming aware of each others work through social media, conferences and publications; they decided to come together to collaborate and invited others to join. Adam Smith joined the group's inaugural meeting, and in this podcast he talks with Jemima and Sarah to understand how the meeting came about, what they hope to achieve and what comes next. We hope that by sharing this story, we can encourage others across the UK and the rest of the world to come together to and make a breakthroughs possible (to quote great the ARUK strapline). A blog written by Anna Volkmer, sharing her take on the meeting is available here: https://www.dementiaresearcher.nihr.ac.uk/guest-blog-meeting-of-minds-qualitative-research-in-dementia/ A transcript of this podcast is also available on our website at https://www.dementiaresearcher.nihr.ac.uk/podcast-collaborations-and-qualitative-research-in-dementia/ _________________________ If you would like to share your own experiences or discuss your research in a blog or on a podcast, drop us a line to adam.smith@nihr.ac.uk or find us on twitter @dem_researcher _________________________ Join Dementia Research a topic of a previous podcast has been selected as a Top 100 innovation created by University College London.

Open science, open access, publication timelines are all discussed in our podcast this week with PLOS ONE Associate Editor George Vousden and Research Manager Rui Maruricio at ARUK. PLOS ONE has launched a call-for-papers, inviting researchers to submit their latest research on the early diagnosis and treatment of Alzheimer’s disease. The impact of AD may be lessened by timely diagnosis, allowing access to care pathways and enabling planning for advanced care. Likewise, the ability to diagnose AD at its early stages is likely a prerequisite for the successful implementation of novel disease-modifying treatments. Submissions are welcome across all disciplines, including basic research, translational studies in animal models and studies in patient populations. https://collections.plos.org/s/alzheimersdisease

This weeks I have four early career researchers, who have all, very recently managed to successfully secure fellowships! It’s tough making post-doc applications, but with application deadlines for NIHR and ARUK looming, we thought this would be the perfect time to discuss (although maybe for the next round... if you take our panels advise). Dr Lashini Mendis talks with Dr Chris Hardy, Dr Kirsty McAleese, Dr Marianne Coleman and Dr Jack Rivers-Auty. All work in different fields of dementia research, and all shared their advice, tips and experiences of getting a fellowship. You can also read a blog we posted earlier this week on this topic, by Anna Volkmer - https://www.dementiaresearcher.nihr.ac.uk/guest-blog-looking-back-my-experiences-of-applying-for-my-fellowship/ You can find our podcast on iTunes, SoundCloud and Spotify, please remember to like, review and subscribe and if you would like to joins us for a recording please drop us a line via our website www.dementiaresearcher.nihr.ac.uk

We don’t think we’ll see a weekend of marathon drama like that again for some time... it was the Commonwealth Games marathon, and what an epic! Yuki won Boston.

Training Talk looks at staying cool in the marathon heat, we’re joined by Kenneth Foreman from ARUK to tell us about Running Down Dementia, we remember the life of multiple Paralympic champion and blind sport ambassador Bob Matthews. Plus we’re joined by Barry Carpenter who shares his incredible journey from living on the streets on London to running this year’s London Marathon, and Tony’s here with some Brighton Trials!

  A new crew has emerged. Well it's the same crew and Aruk, but that's exciting. Finally united in common purpose they are surely now going to put an end to all these Kobold shenanigans. I mean what are the chances that they immedieately fallout with each other and ruin the whole thing? Surely that can't happen.   Here is a link to the new store at Threadless. Go and bathe in its magnificence. Or order a t-shirt. Or don't. You know it really is up to you. We are also introducing a new player this season, Mira Manga. If you want to hear more from Mira you can check her out on her own show Girls On Tour Podcast.  Also check out Dragonmeet for more details of where you can come and see us doing some live shenanigans.

On this week’s show Yuki shares his Tokyo 2020 thoughts. London Good for Age is open, there’s a new Olympic event in Athletics, Dr Jeff is in trouble, we speak to author and adventurer Tobias Mews. You share your top running tunes, Aftershokz give away some headphones to listen to them with, Strava are after your fastest mile and ARUK want you to cover 100k or more this summer. 

Two key themes to come out of the Alzheimer’s Research UK (ARUK) Conference (Aberdeen, UK, 14–15 March 2017) were the celebration of world-class research, and hope for the future of dementia understanding, prevention and treatment, particularly with the forging and strengthening of new partnerships, collaborations and initiatives. In May 2016, ARUK committed £50 million to support the MRC-led UK Dementia Research Institute (DRI), a new hub of dementia research based at University College London (UK), with additional centers across the UK to be announced imminently. Following an international search, Bart De Strooper was recently announced as the Director of the Institute. We caught up with Prof De Strooper at the ARUK Conference to find out more about the DRI and his visions for this exciting new venture for dementia research.
