A Slight Detour: Sharing a Personal Mission and a New Project

Hi everyone,

Today’s post is a bit different from our usual discussions about real estate. I wanted to share something more personal and let you know about a separate project I've recently launched.

Recently, circumstances in my personal life – specifically, learning about my wife’s significant genetic risk for early-onset Alzheimer's disease – have spurred me to embark on a new and deeply important mission.

I've begun an intensive journey to understand the science behind Alzheimer's and explore potential avenues for new treatments. It's a steep learning curve, requiring me to dive into biochemistry, neuroscience, and pharmacology from the ground up.

To document this journey, share what I'm learning, and connect with others interested in this specific challenge, I've launched a completely separate Substack called "Joel on Drugs".

What is "Joel on Drugs" about?

It's my real-time chronicle of learning Alzheimer's science as an outsider, exploring research, evaluating potential therapeutic strategies, and sharing the process openly. It’s focused entirely on this health-related mission.

I'm sharing this today because I know complex challenges like Alzheimer's touch many lives. If this specific topic of Alzheimer's research, citizen science, and exploring potential solutions resonates with you personally, or if you're simply curious about this separate journey, I invite you to follow along over at "Joel on Drugs".

You can find and subscribe to the new, separate Substack here:

If this topic isn't your area of interest, no problem at all! You don't need to do anything – the real estate content you subscribed for will continue here as usual.

Thanks for taking the time to read this brief personal update. I appreciate your understanding and look forward to continuing our real estate discussions here.

Joel
