Talked with Dr. Ron Davis and Stacey DeLoye, Comm. Dir. from Scripps Research in Jupiter. Dr. Davis and his team are working on research advancements related to Alzheimer's and autism as well as other neurological diseases. There is a focus on finding therapeutic treatments that can prevent/stop Alzheimer's disease as right now only a few medications are available to the public and they don't provide long term treatment. Scripps has Calibr a component that helps them develop meds faster. Stacey is working on several different events where listeners can come and learn more about some of the research. They include: Food for Thought Lecture Series (includes luncheon), Front Row Lecture Series, Women in Science Education (WISE). They have internship opportunities and to find out more or to sign up for the lectures, listeners can go to www.scripps.edu
