Synopsis: What happens when a world-class scientist and a philanthropic legacy collide with one of medicine's greatest challenges? Dr. Howard Fillit and Mark Roithmayr of the Alzheimer's Drug Discovery Foundation (ADDF) join host Alok Tayi for an inspiring conversation on bold science, visionary funding models, and the future of Alzheimer's research. From treating Estée Lauder in the 1990s to building a $100M venture philanthropy engine, they trace ADDF's evolution into a global leader in high-risk, high-reward drug development. The discussion covers the rise of biomarkers and digital diagnostics, the foundation's partnerships with visionaries like Bill Gates and Jeff Bezos, and how ADDF's venture philanthropy approach bridges the “valley of death” in biotech. They also dive into global regulatory challenges, the economic urgency of Alzheimer's, and why the future lies in prevention, precision medicine, and a patient-first mindset. This episode is a masterclass in scientific grit, ecosystem thinking, and turning urgency into progress.

Precision medicine is a medical approach that considers a patient's genes, environment, and lifestyle. In the realm of Alzheimer's disease, experts are pushing for using this approach to improve diagnosis, treatment, and our understanding of the condition.

The Alzheimer's Drug Discovery Foundation (ADDF)'s Dr. Howard Fillit joins Being Patient Live Talks to discuss precision medicine and its potential in Alzheimer's diagnosis and care. Fillit is an award-winning geriatrician, neuroscientist, and innovative philanthropy executive who has led the ADDF since its founding. He has authored or co-authored over 300 publications and is the senior editor of Brocklehurst's Textbook of Geriatric Medicine and Gerontology.

The complete audiobook is available at Audible.com: voicesoftoday.net/eyre Jane Eyre By Charlotte Brontë Narrated by Robin Siegerman, Blaise Doran, Graham Scott, Mai Ling Turner, Denis Daly, Alexandra Lee Smith and Jen Smith First published in 1847, Jane Eyre was the last and most popular of the novels composed by the Brontë sisters. The narrative bristles with energy and passionate conviction, and is one of the first novels written from the perspective of a child. Jane is an orphan, raised in the household of an unsympathetic aunt, who shows great favor to her own children—but not to Jane. Jane is soon sent to a boarding school, presided over by the harsh and tyrannical Mr. Brocklehurst. She completes her education and works for two years as a teacher before applying to be governess at Thornfield Hall, a rural mansion in Yorkshire. There, Jane and the master, Edward Rochester, fall in love. A wedding is planned. But the ceremony is interrupted by a claim that Rochester is already married.... Jane flees over the moor. She spends the little money she has saved, and finds herself homeless and starving in an unfamiliar town. Jane is taken in by the Rivers, who nurse her back to health, and an alternative future begins to unfold. But the voice of Rochester continues calling to her....

Dellen Millard and Mark Smich are two of the world's biggest fuck boys, and unfortunately cold-blooded killers. Dellen, better known as "Dell", had everything in his life served to him on a silver platter and never bothered to finish much of anything. Mark Smich lived a life carrying out petty thefts and selling single cigarettes outside of a high school he no longer went to. The two of these assholes crossed paths due to some catastrophe in the stars and decided that they wanted to steal a truck. Their plan of doing so would lead to murder and an investigation that would uncover several other mysterious deaths.Thank you to the vivacious David White for research assistanceReferencesAlamenciak, Tim. 2013.

The number one thing most entrepreneurs struggle with when it comes to social media is staying and showing up consistently.   That's exactly what my guest today, Rachida Brocklehurst, wanted to tackle during our mini-coaching session. Unlike most advice that you've received about staying consistent on social media, I take Rachida and you through finding and connecting with your “why” of creating content, an online presence, and a personal brand.   Answering that million-dollar question is the key to detaching yourself from the outcomes of social media so that you can truly focus on what matters most. From committing to your creative expression, the importance of the inception point of your content creation process, to counterbalancing the results-driven masculine with your feminine, this episode is for you if you've ever ghosted your social media audience and struggled with the content creation process as a whole.   Rachida is a competence and success coach who helps high-achieving women manage everything without falling short on their goals and productivity.   Today we'll talk about: The completely different mindset of being an entrepreneur and working in corporate Committing to your message, audience, and not the outcome of social media Why the energy of the point of inception of your content is where your client meets you   Thank you so much for listening to this episode of the Million Dollar Spirit Business podcast.

Right after Mr Brocklehurst as left the building, Jane is left with her conscience exploding of shame and frustration for how she has been treated. Thankfully, though, the sweet Miss Temple believes Jane and really cares for her and Helen Burns as well. Will this friendship between Jane and Helen last?

Her first month in Lowood has passed and it sees the visit of the Institute of its owner, Mr Brocklehurst. What will it bring?

In the previous chapter we've seen the encounter between Jane and Mr. Brocklehurst, the owner of the Lowood Institute where Jane will be taken to be raised as a humble child. The first day at the school brings some ups and downs. Will she be happy there? Will that school actually turn her into a good child?

The “Coming Man” - Mr. Brocklehurst - makes his appearance and we learn more about the villainous Reverend and his role at Lowood School. Some comparisons between Brocklehurst and Darth Vadar ensue. Join Mike and Charlene as they parse out this parson and discuss Chapter 7 of Jane Eyre. ---- Our theme song is “You Live In My Heart” by Zakhar Valaha.

After meeting Mr. Lloyd in the previous chapter, Jane's hopes of going away from Gateshead and being sent to school were highly up. After weeks and weeks of waiting, a mysterious man approaches the mansion, Mr. Brocklehurst, the principal of the Lowood Institute, a school for wicked children, to teach them the Christian way of being humble and grateful. Will be Jane happy here? Happier than at Gateshead?

Life is changing for little Jane, as she is introduced to Mr. Brocklehurst and learns she will be going to Lowood Institution. Charlene and Mike explore what makes Brocklehurst villainous at even this early stage, and discuss Jane's reaction to finally (!!) calling Mrs. Reed out. ---- Our theme song is “You Live In My Heart” by Zakhar Valaha.

The gang discusses two examples where extinction may have been very important in directing the evolution of mammals through time. The first paper looks at the impact of other mammals groups on the morphology of earlier therians, and the second paper looks at how extinction could explain some of the patterns observed in the Great American Interchange. Meanwhile, James learns some things, Curt steps out, Amanda imagines the end.   Up-Goer Five (Amanda Edition): Today our friends talk about animals with hair. The first paper talks about animals with hair, and that ideas were had a while ago about how old kinds of animals with hair just weren't as good as new kinds of animals with hair, and that the very big angry animals with lots of teeth and no hair made the animals with hair from the same time stay small and not good. But it turns out that even after the very big angry animals with lots of teeth and no hair went away the animals with hair were still all very much the same and didn't do anything fun until much longer after the very big angry animals with lots of teeth and no hair were gone. That means that the very big angry animals with lots of teeth and no hair didn't really keep the animals with hair from being any good. The other paper talks about animals with hair from the upper part of the colder area of land in the "new" half of the world (which is not new but that's the only word we can use in this stupid word thing) moved into the usually warmer lower area of land in the "new" half of the world. It talks about how upper animals with hair moved into lower areas of land, and how lower animals with hair moved into upper areas of land. However, more upper animals moved into lower areas of land. And they wanted to know why. It turns out that more animals with hair that lived in the lower part of the "new" half of the world were dying as the places changed and got colder. We used to think just that it was upper animals with hair were better at living than lower ones, but that isn't true. It's just that there was space for upper animals to move in, and they could use the area better than lower animals with hair that moved to the upper part of the "new" half of the world.   References: Carrillo, Juan D., et al.  "Disproportionate extinction of South American mammals drove the  asymmetry of the Great American Biotic Interchange."

Chapter Four of the classic novel reset in a steampunk world. Written by Charlotte Brontë and R.A. Harding. Narrated by Danyda Feldman. Copyright 2021 R.A. Harding 

Charlotte Brontë [ˈʃɑːlət ˈbɹɒnteɪ], née le 21 avril 1816 à Thornton (comté d'Adams) et morte le 31 mars 1855 à Haworth (comté de Bergen), est une romancière anglaise. Troisième fille du révérend Patrick Brontë, au sein d'une famille de condition modeste qui compte six enfants, elle bénéficie, comme ses quatre sœurs et son frère, de la présence d'un père qui a poussé ses études classiques jusqu'à l'université de Cambridge, et n'hésite pas à leur transmettre sa culture et sa vision du monde. Elle connaît cependant très tôt, alors qu'elle est encore tout enfant, le deuil de sa mère, puis de ses deux sœurs aînées, frappées par la tuberculose. Malgré sa condition de femme et son absence de moyens financiers, elle réussit à publier ses poèmes et ceux de ses sœurs (sous des noms masculins), en 1846, et surtout, à publier son œuvre principale Jane Eyre, devenu un grand classique de la littérature anglaise et mondiale, ayant également laissé une empreinte importante dans l'histoire culturelle en étant adapté au cinéma à plusieurs reprises. Elle naît à Thornton où son père, Patrick Brontë, est pasteur. Sa mère meurt d'un cancer de l'estomac le 15 septembre 18212. En 1824, pour assurer leur éducation, les quatre filles aînées sont envoyées à l'école de Cowan Bridge, établissement recevant les enfants des membres du clergé peu fortuné, qui avait été recommandé à M. Brontë. Dans cette école, pourtant de bonne réputation, les conditions de vie sont difficiles, sans chauffage, avec une maigre nourriture préparée sans aucune hygiène, et presque immangeable. L'année suivante, Maria et Elizabeth tombent gravement malades et en sont retirées, mais décèdent peu après à quelques semaines d'intervalle, le 6 mai et le 15 juin 18255 ; Charlotte et Emily, enlevées elles aussi à ce lieu malsain, retournent à Haworth. La perte de leurs deux sœurs sera pour les quatre enfants un traumatisme qui transparaît notamment dans l'œuvre de Charlotte, par exemple dans Jane Eyre où Cowan Bridge devient Lowood, la figure pathétique de Maria est représentée sous les traits de la jeune Helen Burns, la cruauté d'une maîtresse, Miss Andrews, sous ceux de Miss Scatcherd et la tyrannie du directeur, le Révérend Carus Wilson, sous ceux de l'odieux et suffisant M. Brocklehurst. Ellen Nussey, la grande amie de Charlotte, vers 1855, à l'époque de la mort de cette dernière. Charlotte se retrouve alors l'aînée des quatre enfants survivants. Les autres sont Branwell, Emily et Anne. Désormais, les enfants seront élevés par leur tante maternelle Elizabeth Branwell, figure un peu mystérieuse qui n'aura pas une grande influence sur Charlotte et Emily. Mais surtout, une véritable symbiose littéraire et familiale va se créer entre les enfants. En effet, stimulés par la lecture du Blackwood's Magazine que reçoit leur père, Charlotte et Branwell entament avec Emily et Anne une collaboration littéraire intense autour d'un pays imaginaire, la confédération de Glass Town, créant une quantité fabuleuse de récits, de pièces de théâtre, de journaux, de poèmes écrits en caractères minuscules. Ils peuplent ce monde d'une foule de personnages, tels que le comte de Northangerland (le cruel et perfide Alexander Rogue), ou le grand peintre Sir Edward de Lisle. C'est l'occasion pour les quatre enfants d'échanges d'idées et de connaissances intenses, et d'une stimulante rivalité intellectuelle. Puis Charlotte est envoyée une nouvelle fois en pension, en 1831, mais cette fois dans un établissement de qualité, chez Miss Wooler, où elle nouera deux amitiés durables, avec Ellen Nussey et Mary Taylor. L'entrée dans la vie professionnelle est difficile. Hantée par le besoin d'écrire, elle parvient à peine à remplir ses fonctions d'institutrice dans son ancien pensionnat, puis de gouvernante chez des particuliers. Des tentatives de contact avec d'autres écrivains, notamment Robert Southey qui lui déconseille l'écriture parce qu'elle est une femme, ne portent guère de fruits. Un jour, en 1845, Charlotte découvre par hasard des textes d'Emily. Éblouie par leur qualité, elle propose à ses sœurs de publier un volume collectif qui paraîtra sous le titre Poems by Currer, Ellis and Acton Bell (1846). Les trois sœurs se mettent alors à des romans. Ceux d'Anne et Emily, Agnes Grey et Les Hauts de Hurlevent (Wuthering Heights), sont acceptés par un éditeur, mais non le récit de Charlotte, The Professor. En revanche, son deuxième roman, Jane Eyre, publié en 1847 sous le pseudonyme de Currer Bell, fait sensation. Héritier de la tradition du roman gothique, ce récit à la première personne scandalise certains par l'affirmation de soi et la détermination de l'héroïne - on est en pleine époque victorienne - mais son style somptueux, à la fois passionné et parfaitement maîtrisé, en fera un immense best-seller. Elle entame alors un troisième roman, Shirley. Entre-temps, son frère Branwell est devenu alcoolique et opiomane, addictions qu'une déception amoureuse ne fait qu'aggraver, et meurt de tuberculose en septembre 1848. Emily décède aussi quelques semaines plus tard, en décembre de la même année, après avoir pris froid et refusé de se soigner. Moins rétive aux soins, Anne ne tardera pourtant pas à mourir de la même maladie en mai 1849. Commence alors une période de calvaire pour Charlotte. Elle termine tant bien que mal Shirley tout en luttant contre une dépression atroce. Ses horizons s'élargissent néanmoins à présent qu'elle n'est plus tenue de respecter l'anonymat qu'elle avait juré à Emily. Soutenue par son éditeur George Smith, elle fait la connaissance du Tout-Londres littéraire et noue de solides amitiés avec ses pairs, notamment sa future biographe Elizabeth Gaskell. Shirley a souffert des conditions dans lesquelles il a été écrit. Les deux héroïnes se transforment en portraits idéalisés des sœurs de Charlotte, et le récit ne cesse de vaciller entre le réalisme social et un romantisme aussi échevelé mais beaucoup moins convaincant que celui de Jane Eyre. Charlotte retrouve une veine plus conforme à son talent avec Villette, publié en 1853, fondé sur ses expériences bruxelloises et considéré par certains comme son chef-d'œuvre.

This week the girls pull apart Charlotte Bronte's eternal classic, Jane Eyre. They go way over time because there are loads of excerpts they absolutely have to read, not to mention their discussions around: - Jane's self-sacrifice and how that does or doesn't set her up to cope with her life of crushing disappointment - Just how big a pr*** Mr Brocklehurst is (hint: enormous beyond quantification) - Mr Rochester: Ugly sexy or that one ex that was way too into with you? - The weirdest/most amazing Kindle typos ever - Saoirse's glue gun crafting skillz - Katie playing too much GTA and what it means for a feminist to shoot virtual hookers for fun - Chloe's ingenious plan to get Katie to attend (AND PARTICIPATE IN) a livestreamed BTS concert Oh it's a whole lot of...well tangents...but still, they do talk about the book for some of the time.

If you don't know where you're going, you're never going to arrive there.   Hi everyone! Welcome to The New Leader Podcast. Today's guest is Simon Brocklehurst. Simon is a commercial leader with a unique breadth of experience working in, and with, many of the world's leading organizations. He established CommercialSolutions consulting, a different kind of consulting firm, to help you solve your commercial challenges: creating clear, pragmatic plans and supporting their delivery. In this episode, we talk about His first leadership role, Staying true to yourself, How to create a strategy, Disruption, And a lot more. Click that play button to listen, and don't forget to rate us on iTunes! Stay True to Yourself I worked in an organization with a very controlling culture; there was always a culture of fear. There was a lot of inexperience and insecurity in the leadership. I was delivering the goals, but I think what I did there was I tried too hard to deliver how the people who were in charge wanted me to deliver, rather than how I should have done. I didn't stay true to myself. What I realized afterwards was that the internal conflict there was perceived as inauthentic sometimes by some of the people I worked with, and they didn't see how much I really cared for them, how I really wanted them to be successful. I think the lesson for me certainly is, whatever situation you're in, you need to be authentic. Absolutely essential for any leader, new or experienced. What is Strategy? For me, strategy should be simple. It should be very practical; it should yield results quite quickly, because you need to have a clear vision and you need to make it happen. Strategy is a plan. That's it. It's a plan to achieve something. You need to do a couple of things: one, you need to have a clear vision. Obviously, you must have an idea of where you're going. Pick a destination. The best way to do that is to do it with a group. Then it's about what you are going to do to achieve that vision. What are you going to focus on? What are you not going to focus on? The final thing is who's going to do what, when and how. Prioritization – don't try to do it all in one go. Break it down into tasks and say, “Which one are we going to do first, second, and later on to get to where we're going?” For me, it's all about this continuous process of improving and moving towards your vision. VISTA I have a process, I call it VISTA – Vision, Strategy, Tactics and Achieve. It's not rocket science, it's pretty simple. Create a Vision. Decide on what are your focus areas, your strategies. Get your tactics clear. What are the things you are actually going to do? Achieve them. Stay flexible, track where you're going, keep the discipline, make sure you're focused on what you're doing action-wise and everyone knows what's doing what and when.

In episode #24 we met legendary classical, rock and opera singer Peter Brocklehurst.  The tenor cobbler with the incomparable voice. Peter's life is all about transformation: From a daily diet of upwards of 10 litres of wine, Jack Daniels from breakfast and canned beer for a chaser, to alcohol fee. From a destructive smoking habit to smoke-free From internal organs that were shutting down to fully recovered From 2 destroyed marriages to love and happiness with a kindred spirit, and From throwing himself off a cliff and time in a mental hospital to a budding bible scholar and part-time preacher Any single one of these miracles would be remarkable on its own.

You can do so on our website or on Facebook.  We'd love to hear from you.
