Our 2018 Meet-up

[Liko]

I am a naturopathic nutritionist in the UK , hoping to come to the next meet up and would be happy to help out with whatever is needed,

Ellen

Hi Ellen! Welcome and thank you for your generous offer to assist with the meetup! I hope you'll share your nutrition expertise here on the forum as well. You may have already been able to review the Primer and Wiki since joining, but I wanted to point them out just in case. If you're comfortable posting an introduction, please do so in Our Stories. Have a great day!

I've also noticed that the Annual Alzheimer's International Conference is in Chicago this year, July 22-26.

And, as always, please feel free to shout out if you'd like to host a regional meet-up just to socialize.

Hi Julie G--I might be interested in attending the Annual Alzheimer's Conference in Chicago. Have you attended before (whole conference, or just for a day?)?

I would also like to do another Midwest regional meet-up. I'm happy to help plan/host.

[Grace]

Hi Julie,

I am happy to help out with organizing the meeting or anything else. I will message you separately to introduce myself. Thanks for everything that you do!

[Julie G]

YES, JML- I'm very interested in attending. I'm considering the whole conference. It's pricey, but I suspect that there will be very helpful information for us peppered throughout. I also suspect that it will also be a good networking opportunity. Last year, several researcher attendees were emailing me looking for representatives from our group. I hope others will consider joining, if even for a day. I'm somewhat concerned that it will be too technical for some, (like me- giggle ) and not as focused upon prevention/remediation strategies as other conferences that we've attended in the past. With that in mind, PLEASE recommend similar opportunities here.

JML, please feel free to start a new thread on another Chicago meet-up. I'd love to attend.

Waves, Grace! We'd love your help in putting together our conferences. I'm about to announce many newly created committees and that particular one, "Conferences," has remained unstaffed (except for me) until now.

[Grace]

Count me in on that committee, Julie G!

I've also noticed that the Annual Alzheimer's International Conference is in Chicago this year, July 22-26. It was in London last year and subsequently out of reach to many of us. I'm very tempted to attend. Is anyone else interested in this?

I am very interested in the Annual Alzheimer's International Conference and am thrilled it is in Chicago this year. I hope to attend. I was going to ask the same question you ask in your post Julie, if anyone knows of other cognitive health conferences coming up.

[Julie G]

Yay- ccfield! That's three of us... I hope we can get some more folks interested.

Count me in on that committee, Julie G!

You're a goddess, Grace! I've got you signed up. Let's connect soon.

I am very interested in attending the AAIC in July! I would also LOVE to attend our meet-up but if it is in late October of this year I will not be able to. I will be in Cambridge, MA for parents weekend at MIT. Is the date still pending?

[Magda]

This all sound amazing! I am super interested in attending the meet up where ever and whenever it will happen.
As far as a regional meet up, I am in NYC if anyone here is interested in putting a meet up together, I am here to help.

My best,
Magda

I'm Chicago-based and would be delighted to join in a local meet-up and/or at the Alzheimer's conference and to help with logistical support.
