Flourish As You Age
BRAIN HEALTH
MENTAL MANAGEMENT
A GOOD DEATH
Let's not just fade away; let's FLOURISH as we age!
The MINDRAMP Podcasts focus on three key components that have been shown to contribute to flourishing in the later years of your life. You will find mini-series of episodes that explore each component.
1) Keeping your brain and body healthy - see The Roots of Brain Health
2) Managing your mental states - see Flourishing
3) Planning the kind of death you want to have - (coming 10/1/24))
You will also find the occasional episodes that focus social concerns that I feel have an impact on our well-being, for example "Elections."
Flourish As You Age
BRAIN - Jesse Wiley, Pt. 1 The Search for New Alzheimer's Drugs
Comments? Send me a text message.
Jesse Wiley of Sage Bionetworks talks about his involvement with TREAT-AD, which is an exciting open-science, community approach to developing data-drive hypotheses that may lead towards new kinds of treatments for Alzheimer's disease. These new approaches will go beyond the amyloid hypothesis that has dominated research and drug development approaches over the last two decades, yet failed to produce any effective drug.
