Dr Mylea Charvat on the Launch of StartUp Health’s Alzheimer’s Moonshot: This Disease Is Everywhere

Brain health expert Mylea Charvat, PhD, sat down with us at the recent StartUp Health Festival @ ViVE 2022 to talk about the launch of StartUp Health’s Alzheimer’s Moonshot.

“In my many years of research around Alzheimer’s and related dementias, and my time building companies focused on brain health, I’ve never experienced this kind of momentum around collaborative innovation,” said Dr. Charvat, who will chair the Alzheimer’s Moonshot initiative for StartUp Health. “This isn’t a problem for one university or company or even country to solve. It’s a global challenge, and we need to organize our knowledge and finances to tackle it as one army of innovators.”

The establishment of the StartUp Health Alzheimer’s Moonshot builds on a series of investments StartUp Health has made in the brain health space, now actively looking to put forth a new effort to coordinate resources and fund innovations aimed at eradicating the disease.

“The brain is the motherboard of the body.” This call for innovation for the StartUp Health Alzheimer’s Moonshot is a call for entrepreneurs who believe that we need to leverage collaboration and moonshot thinking to deliver quality care to everyone in the world regardless of location or income. This launch is also an invitation to investors and partners. If you believe in a collaborative, global approach to eradicating Alzheimer’s disease, and if you believe we are stronger together, as an army of innovators and investors with a single health moonshot objective, we want to hear from you.
