UC San Francisco is helping to create the first large group of Asian American study participants to help improve Alzheimer's disease care for the Asian community in the United States and Canada, a population that is significantly underrepresented in Alzheimer's disease research. National datasets and clinical trials for Alzheimer's disease research have few people of Asian ancestry - generally less than 3 percent, and as low as 0.5 percent. This makes it difficult to know whether Alzheimer's research findings can be broadly applied to this group.

It's almost 14 years since I first came across Brixworth Workhouse . When I came back from that encounter, I wrote a blog post that quoted the website of the village's history society: The first Master of the Brixworth Union Workhouse in 1837 was a Mr Baillie with his wife appointed as the Matron, and the first meeting of the Board of Guardians took place in the Workhouse on May 4th of the same year. Within five years of the Workhouse opening the cost of "out relief" in Brixworth had been reduced to £0-9s-0d a week for those entitled to it.
