335 - A Conversation with Gina Martin: Bringing Visual Awareness to Dementia

AMiNDR: A Month in Neurodegenerative Disease Research

As we get back up to speed on our regular episodes, we thought we'd treat you (and ourselves) to something out of the ordinary: a conversation on how visual storytelling can shape how we think - and feel - about Alzheimer's disease. Host Naila Kuhlmann had the pleasure of interviewing Gina Martin, who founded the Bob and Diane Fund to support and promote visual storytelling about Alzheimer's and dementia. Tune in to get the backstory on the fund, an auditory glimpse at the work of this year's winner, a discussion on the social narrative of Alzheimer's disease, and reflections on the role of the arts in shaping it. We hope you enjoy, and welcome your feedback and thoughts!

Our team of volunteers works tirelessly each month to bring you every episode of AMiNDR. This episode was hosted by Naila Kuhlmann, edited by Michelle Grover, and reviewed by Naila Kuhlmann. The episode art was created by Salodin Al-Achkar (www.wordart.com).

Big thanks to the sorting team for taking on the enormous task of sorting all of the Alzheimer’s Disease papers into episodes each month. For November 2023, the sorters were Elyn Rowe, Christy Yu, Salodin Al-Achkar, Naila Kuhlmann and Anusha Kamesh. Also, props to our management team, which includes Sarah Louadi, Ellen Koch, Naila Kuhlmann, Elyn Rowe, Anusha Kamesh, Lara Onbasi, Joseph Liang, Judy Cheng, and Christy Yu, for keeping everything running smoothly. AMiNDR was founded in 2020 by Sarah Louadi, Ellen Koch, Elyn Rowe, and Naila Kuhlmann.

Our music is from "Journey of a Neurotransmitter" by musician and fellow neuroscientist Anusha Kamesh; you can find the original piece and her other music on soundcloud under Anusha Kamesh or on her YouTube channel, AKMusic.

If you are interested in joining the team, send us your CV by email. We are specifically looking for help with sorting abstracts by topic, abstract summaries and hosting, audio editing, creating bibliographies, and outreach/marketing. However, if you are interested in helping in other ways, don't hesitate to apply anyways.
