Argentina

Valentina:  “Last month I’ve worked over 12 hours indexing aging discussion group lectures and adding the links articles to the meeting notice of this month (see below)” Check it out: Index for aging group slides.

Sri Lanka

Very slow progress to getting a commitment from Durdan’s hospital to do our aging studies.  Beginning to think of approaching another hospital.  Lakshika has been working on the XPrize application, which we hope to submit in 2.5 months.

India

Anura, a professor at the University of Peradeniya (Sri Lanka) has suggested we approach a hospital in India that is interested in doing clinical trials for people, so we will be approaching them.

Dominican Republic

At the end of the month Kraig (currently living in the Dominican Republic) will be joining my wife & I on a cruise.  During the cruise we will be formulating an approach to doing aging research in the Dominican Republic. We will also be working hard to finalize our XPrize application during the cruise.  (So, basically, nothing new right now–but lots of plans!)

United Kingdom

Very high expenses (due to remodeling a building) are pinching cash flow available to 

United States

We are missing a few things from the XPrize application that, while not required, will greatly enhance our application.  The most important of which is someone who has experience with clinical trials.  Anyone have any suggestions?

Things I read over the month that I found interesting:

Hope to see you at the meeting!
