- 00:01Alright.
- 00:02So exciting to start this
- 00:04symposium.
- 00:06It's exciting that we're, for
- 00:07the very first time, in
- 00:09the new, one zero one
- 00:10college building, the new the
- 00:12new, worldwide center of the
- 00:14Adams
- 00:15Center for Parkinson's Disease Research.
- 00:18Thank you all for coming,
- 00:19and especially,
- 00:21our friends from from Boston
- 00:23and and New York.
- 00:25Thank you for making making
- 00:27the trip. We're excited to
- 00:28work with you.
- 00:31One of the most exciting
- 00:33things at Yale
- 00:35is that the leadership
- 00:37is absolutely
- 00:38committed to advancing precision medicine,
- 00:42AI,
- 00:43and genomic medicine.
- 00:45And,
- 00:47they really have put wind
- 00:48in our sails, and it
- 00:50makes all the difference.
- 00:51And so it is my
- 00:53distinct
- 00:55honor and joy,
- 00:58that
- 00:59the leader who has made
- 01:00this all possible, who has
- 01:02made the Adam Center possible,
- 01:03the this workshop possible,
- 01:06will now kick off the
- 01:08meeting. Please,
- 01:10give a round of applause
- 01:11for,
- 01:12the dean of Yale
- 01:14School of Medicine,
- 01:15Nancy Brown.
- 01:22I think it's the Steve
- 01:23and Denise Adams who made
- 01:25the Adams Center possible, just
- 01:27just to point out.
- 01:28For those of you who
- 01:29are joining from,
- 01:31from North and South,
- 01:33these workshops are an opportunity
- 01:35to bring people together from,
- 01:37across the school and, of
- 01:38course, across the region. And
- 01:40so it's my pleasure to
- 01:41welcome you to,
- 01:43this particular workshop in building
- 01:44the future of precision,
- 01:46neurology.
- 01:47And I think this will
- 01:48do two things. It will
- 01:49highlight the mission of this
- 01:51center,
- 01:52but also
- 01:54bring together
- 01:56a group of people who
- 01:57are really working on predictive
- 01:58and preventive precision,
- 02:00neurology,
- 02:01and as Clemens said,
- 02:03using both genomics and AI.
- 02:05And you can read in
- 02:07your program this description.
- 02:09I think the notion that
- 02:10we can,
- 02:12drive this center, that we
- 02:14can, through discovery,
- 02:17drive both diagnoses
- 02:19and targeted therapy,
- 02:21is really important, and particularly
- 02:23in the complex and familial
- 02:24forms
- 02:25of of the disease.
- 02:27We're also very excited about
- 02:28the work ongoing in Parkinson's
- 02:30and in other diseases using
- 02:32digital twins,
- 02:34and and ultimately,
- 02:36brains on a chip simulations.
- 02:38So in this workshop, you'll
- 02:40hear from, a number of
- 02:42our Yale colleagues. You'll also
- 02:43hear from, Luke p Lee,
- 02:45who is professor of medicine
- 02:47at Harvard Medical School and
- 02:48senior investigator at Brigham and
- 02:49Women's.
- 02:51We'll also have a couple
- 02:52of panel discussions
- 02:53that I think will be
- 02:54very rich,
- 02:55later.
- 02:57And we are led, and
- 02:58I'm about to turn the
- 02:59program over to doctor Clement
- 03:01Searcher, who is the director
- 03:03of the Stevens and Denise
- 03:04Adams
- 03:05Center for Parkinson's Disease Research.
- 03:08Many of you may know
- 03:09that Steve and Denise also,
- 03:12contributed significantly to the building
- 03:14of a new
- 03:15neuroscience
- 03:16tower in our health system,
- 03:17which will allow us,
- 03:20provide a home where we
- 03:21can implement these discoveries.
- 03:23So, Clemens, I'm gonna turn
- 03:24it over to you.
