Keynote address

Investing in the 21st Century Brain

‘Investment’ in the brain can be viewed in two ways: personal development and professional profit. We all have a personal interest in the brain, since it is the basis of our unique minds. The wonderful thing about being a human being is that although we are born with a full complement of brain cells, it is the growth of connections between the cells that accounts for the growth of the brain after birth. These connections reflect the unique sequence, a life-story, of individual experiences and interactions with the outside world: a phenomenon known as ‘plasticity’ that leads to the personalisation of the physical brain, amounting to a ‘mind’. Given the unprecedented challenges posed by the digital world to thinking, emotions and well-being, we need to devise the best ways for optimising fulfilment of each individual’s potential, as well evaluating the best possible investments arising from digital technologies and AI. The other significant factor for the well being of the 21st Century brain, and indeed in the opportunity for high return investment, is the increase in prevalence of Alzheimer’s Disease. The global market for AD treatment will more than double in value from $4.9 billion in 2013, to reach an estimated $13.3 billion in 2023. However, the challenge is to devise a treatment that tackles not the consequence of neurodegeneration i.e., amyloid plaques, but the actual cause. We shall explore a disruptive approach based on the pivotal mechanism of degeneration, leading to a possible pre-symptomatic lateral flow test for Alzheimer’s as well as a first-in-class therapeutic with proven efficacy in a living animal model. The combination of a presymptomatic screen coupled with an drug treatment that halted cell loss, would amount to an effective ‘cure’. This would surely be a great investment, both on a personal as well as a professional level!
