Thanks it’s certainly interesting particularly the bits around making advice clinically safe (from a regulatory point of view) and from known sources in an accessible way. Early testers have really liked just the diary function where they can see one week is better than the last

Developing the diarisation capabilities of the carer app - ultimately quite a simple change allowing people to say when x y z happens. Working with partners in Germany around what to safely suggest (if anything)

open.substack.com/pub/rorycell... Wrote about my first trip to a tech event in a while where I found some fascinating tech on the @alzheimerssoc.bsky.social stand. I found the show hard to navigate and exhausting which perhaps explains why I accidentally posted this last night not this morning!
Innovating for Alzheimer's
Ten minutes into London Tech Week, my first big tech event for a while, and I had had enough.

Amazing result from Canada. It looks like the world can continue to thrive with centrist liberal democracies.

Why are we not doing this? Never seen a more "no brainer" policy. Even people who are the most strongly opposed to immigration tend not to object to top scientists coming here.

Britain, a trading nation, now has a vital choice to make about its priority trading partners:

- the EU, where agreements are made, kept, reciprocal, based on international norms, & enforced by a court

- the USA, where agreements are made, broken, changed & broken again at a whim, with no recourse

Most people haven’t heard of this test, which is available in the US. It accurately predicts Alzheimer’s (not just if there’s a risk, but when). It is modulated by exercise and likely other lifestyle factors.
Here’s (almost) everything we know about it

Have written about JD Vance’s Munich speech. In what may prove to be the biggest week for European security since 1991, it’s time Europe listened to what Trump and his Vice President are telling us. open.substack.com/pub/goodalla...
We need to listen to what Trump and Vance are telling us.
This may have been the biggest moment for European security since 1991.
