This partnership will provide enhanced tools for the diagnosis and treatment of Alzheimer’s patients. AIRAmed’s cutting-edge technology allows patients to monitor their brain health through serial MRIs, which are conducted regularly during anti-amyloid therapy.

BONITA SPRINGS, Fla., Sept. 27, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — AIRAmed, a software company dedicated to the earlier detection of neurodegenerative diseases, more precise diagnoses, personalized treatments, and improving the quality of life for affected patients, is pleased to announce a research collaboration with Memory Treatment Centers.

AIRAmed and Memory Treatment Centers have launched a research partnership studying Alzheimer’s disease.

Dr Tobias Lindig, Managing Director, AIRAmed said, “AIRAmed’s vision and mission is to continuously improve patient care with cutting edge technology – especially in the field of neurodegenerative diseases. We dedicate ourselves to early detection of disease. We developed our FDA-cleared AI-software AIRAscore – allowing to track changes in regional brain volume not visible to the eye. We are convinced that the partnership with MTC in this new era of treatments for Alzheimer´s disease offers a game-changing quality-of-life change for patients undergoing these new therapies.”

Dr. Donald McCarren, Memory Treatment Centers, said, “we at MTC are eager to partner with AIRAmed and drive forward innovation in patient care.

About AIRAmed – Our mission at AIRAmed is to bring the latest findings and possibilities from clinical research to the patient as quickly as possible. In many years as doctors and researchers at the University Hospital of Tuebingen, we have often seen valuable research results disappear into a drawer.

BANGKOK, Sept. 27, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Following their recent partnership, the Vantage Foundation has connected V&A Solution AEC Co Ltd (or “V&A Solution”) with Metta Home to host an interactive, engaging, and educational event for the children.

A representative from V&A Solution began the day with a simple talk on how to manage money wisely, offering the children helpful advice on saving and spending responsibly. After the session, the children enjoyed a lunch from McDonald’s, which added to the lively and positive atmosphere of the day.

The event concluded with a range of fun-filled games, including Thai childhood favourites such as Captain’s Ball, a memory game, and a balancing water balloon race. The children enthusiastically participated, filling the afternoon with laughter, teamwork, and excitement. The games not only entertained the children but also encouraged cooperation and strengthened their bonds with each other.

Facilitating partnerships like the one between V&A Solution and Metta Home allows us to bring positive, lasting experiences to these children and create deeper connections within the community.”
