That's a wonderful initiative.👍. Even in Japan, AbbVie ‘s head office building turned on blue light during April, ( https://lnkd.in/gm-qzVKN ) but about other activities they only said "we didn't know" when I talked to them. And they also said that they would been banned to be direct to patients. Is it difficult in Japan? If they start doing it all over the world, I feel sorry leaving the sponsor only to abbvie. I hope we patients can also become effective stakeholders, but there is no system called fundraising, and it is not socially acceptable in Japan. ーーーーーーーーーーー About AbbVie in Parkinson’s At AbbVie, we are aiming to transform Parkinson's disease care and improve outcomes for those living with this progressive condition.

Exciting Momentum in the Fight Against Dementia We are at a pivotal moment in our collective journey to combat Alzheimer’s and other forms of dementia. It's heartening to see the recent increase in funding for research in this critical area—a testament to the global recognition of the urgent need to address and improve the many aspects of dementia-related challenges. This surge in support not only fuels innovation and advances in treatment but also amplifies the importance of early detection and intervention. At Cognes Medical Solutions, we are inspired by this momentum. Our commitment to developing groundbreaking technologies, like our SaaS screening solution Cognes, is more invigorated than ever. These tools aim to leverage machine learning to detect early signs of dementia through digital biomarkers in facial features, offering hope for earlier and more precise prognoses. We extend our deepest gratitude to the research community, funding partners, and everyone dedicated to this cause. Together, we are paving the way for a future where dementia can be identified and addressed more effectively, improving the quality of life for individuals and their families worldwide. Let’s continue to support and celebrate these advancements. The path forward is bright, and your engagement and support are vital to transforming the landscape of dementia care and research. #DementiaResearch #Innovation #MachineLearning #MedTech #HealthcareInnovation
Big news! 🎉 Congress has announced a $100M increase for Alzheimer’s and dementia research funding at the National Institutes of Health (NIH) for fiscal year 2024! This includes $34M to fund the BOLD Infrastructure for Alzheimer’s Act, which strengthens the Alzheimer’s public health infrastructure in communities across the nation. Thank you to our dedicated volunteers who have advocated for these increases and to our bipartisan congressional champions for their support and commitment. 💜 Together, we’re empowering our communities, accelerating research and improving dementia care.

Deeply honored to be partnered with this amazing group from University of St Andrews, The University of Edinburgh, NHS Fife, NHS Highland and so many others on highly significant work managing acute unscheduled and end-of-life care. 🔍 The project emerged amid unprecedented pressure on the country’s unscheduled care services, driven by workforce shortages, demographic changes, and widespread multimorbidity (when a person has two or more long-term health conditions). In 2022, Accident & Emergency waiting times hit record levels, and over a quarter-million calls to NHS24 went unanswered. Alongside these services, unscheduled care also includes General Practice Out-of-Hours (GPOOH) and the Scottish Ambulance Service (SAS). 🩺 Research shows that one group frequently using these services is individuals in their last year of life. Although essential, unscheduled care often isn’t the most appropriate option for them, relying on a reactive approach rather than nuanced, anticipatory, and coordinated planning. This can lead to fragmented, expensive, and less effective care, causing additional distress to patients and their families. 💡 Our program will leverage machine learning and artificial intelligence to analyze existing healthcare data and predict future patterns of unscheduled care use by patients in their last year of life. This will help identify those who may need social care reviews, prescribing interventions, or other anticipatory care measures, ultimately reducing their reliance on unscheduled care. 🌟 Excited to be part of this transformative initiative! #HealthcareInnovation #AIinHealthcare #PatientCare #EndOfLifeCare #UnscheduledCare Yale School of Medicine Yale Emergency Medicine Yale Biomedical Informatics & Data Science Yale School of Public Health
📢A team led by St Andrews School of Medicine has been awarded ~£1M by the Chief Scientist Office to conduct cutting-edge end-of-life care research! We look forward to progressing this important work with collaborators NHS Fife , NHS Highland, Highland Hospice, The University of Edinburgh, & Yale School of Public Health, & Fife Community Advisory Council.
