This year our chapter is dedicating
the proceeds of many of our
special events to a new $3 million
campaign, “Sustaining the Mind: Scientific Research and
Scholarships,” which will establish an endowed fund for
neuroscience and neurodegenerative disease research and
scholarships for students in the sciences.
In less than 75 years, one quarter of the world will be
more than 65 years of age. Many will be afflicted with
conditions that “catch up” with us as we age – Alzheimer’s,
Parkinson’s and Lou Gehrig’s – debilitating diseases that
Brandeis researchers are racing to conquer.

health maintained during adult life? What happens during
normal aging or disease to impair brain functions?

Speaker: Melissa Kosinski-Collins, PhD., Associate
Professor of Biology, Brandeis University
“When Good Proteins Go Bad:
An introduction to neurological disease research
at Brandeis University”
How is it that our brain functions perfectly for 59 years (or 65 years?
Or 70 years?) and then suddenly begins to self destruct at an alarming
rate?
Professor Kosinski-Collins will introduce you to the molecules in our
brain with no known function other than to cause the destruction of
memory. She will also explain how a protein’s degeneration leads to such
debilitating diseases as autism, Lou Gehrig’s, and Parkinson’s. And she
will talk about current ongoing studies at Brandeis and possible future
therapies for disease treatment.

Wonders of the
Brandeis Book Store”
“This book store is filled with every imaginary treasure. The women who run
the store are wonderful, brilliant and engaging.” – a devoted customer, Mia Plotaker
The Brandeis Used Book Store of Boca Raton was opened in 1995. Run entirely
by Brandeis volunteers, it is operated by four Brandeis National Committee
chapters – Boca Raton, Delray Beach, Trails and Pompano Beach. Audrey Bernstein, a former president of the Boca Raton chapter, was a founder and manager
and very dedicated to this project. Now it is operated by Molly Seiden.
The volunteers, some of who have done so for over twelve years, come to the
store once or twice a week and are truly “book people,” ready to help customers find exactly the kind of book they might enjoy. Many teachers bring their
students to buy their school books and grandparents love to treat grandchildren
with special books of their choice. Books that are not sold have been given to
retirement homes, prisons and needy children.
You may bring in your books to the store to donate them, or, if you call, someone from the Brandeis Book Store will come to your house and pick up donations. Come and Visit!
The book store is located in the Boca Hampton Center on Lyons Road between
Glades and Yamato. Open Monday - Saturday 9:30am to 5:00 pm (561) 852-3650.
