Hello, Conover Foundation is looking for a free lance IT consultant to support our Empathy Thinking® initiative on POI/EM. The individual must have keen management insights into using G-Suites for operations. We will work with them either on a deliverable basis or by an hourly rate. A personal knowledge of living with primary ovarian insufficiency or early menopause (POI/EM) either as a woman with the disorder or as a spouse is a real plus in the selection process. Please PM our administrative officer Yimmie Patananupap or email her at [email protected] if you are interested. https://www.conoverfoundation.org

"Humanity is created only when individuals respect each other and build connections with each other based on compassion." - Toyoji Nakamura -

McLean Center for Art and Neuroscience honors the legacy of Toyoji Nakamura. During these times of racial tension in America his message of compassion for others resonates with the needs of the world now. We are working to raise awareness of his legacy. We see a need for stronger families, more empathy, and more knowledge about how to nurture healthy relationships in our lives. The senior center he founded in 1972 still serves the community (http://www.mimatu.or.jp/).

An exciting update about our What’s up Doc?℠ collaboration with Yimmie Patananupap, Chaninan Nunee, Panpin Tala, and Alison Gatewood Porter.

In April our team leader Lawrence M. Nelson will be speaking at an international conference in Amsterdam. The focus of the scientific meeting is on reproductive hormones and the brain.

The subjects he will address will be 1) Physiologic Hormone Replacement Therapy (P-HRT) as developed by NIH research, 2) Primary Ovarian Insufficiency, and 3) Turner Syndrome. This lecture is by invitation from the European Society for Human Reproduction and Embryology.
A major message he will bring to this conference is the need for an international effort to develop an artificial o***y designed to provide P-HRT.
