MPFI’s Wang Lab Awarded $1M Grant to Study Mechanism Behind Memory Decline in Alzheimer’s
Jupiter, FL, August 24, 2023 — Max Planck Florida Institute for Neuroscience will be able to expand their research program to investigate the neural circuits underlying Alzheimer’s disease with new support. The National Institute on Aging of the NIH has awarded Dr. Yingxue Wang $1,038,819 over three years as part of the Alzheimer’s Disease Initiative Fund. The research will shed new light on how the brain forms new memories and maintains them over time and what can lead to memory decline during Alzheimer’s Disease.
Turning our daily experiences into memories involves a brain region called the hippocampus. Among the many signals the hippocampus receives, cholinergic inputs from the basal forebrain are crucial for learning and memory. As we age, cholinergic inputs become less effective at generating a neuronal response and deteriorate in patients suffering from Alzheimer’s disease. While scientists understand that cholinergic function is an integral part of memory formation, exactly how it impacts the hippocampal circuits remains largely unknown.
“We are excited and honored to receive this generous funding, which will significantly impact our ability to answer important questions about how we make and maintain memories,” said Dr. Wang. “This grant not only advances our research but symbolizes the collective hope that drives us to study this devastating condition. My lab and I are profoundly grateful for this trust and support.”
As part of this project, Dr. Wang will collaborate with Dr. Alex Roxin of the Centre de Recerca Matematica, Spain, who will be funded separately by the Spanish Research Agency, AEI.
Dr. Wang joined MPFI in 2018 and leads the Neuronal Mechanisms of Episodic Memory research group. Before that, she was a research scientist at the Janelia Research Campus of Howard Hughes Medical Institute, where she studied the hippocampal neuronal activities that represent memory traces.
Trained as an electrical engineer, Dr. Wang completed her graduate study at the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology Zurich (ETHZ). During her Ph.D. training, she designed brain-inspired computational systems on silicon chips. These fully reconfigurable systems incorporated electronic circuits of a network of neurons with dendrites and synapses. Using these systems as simulation tools, she also investigated the computational principles native to a neuron with active dendrites.
Principals of engineering greatly inform Dr. Wang’s work at MPFI, which combines experimental techniques with computational modeling, enabling the Wang lab to accelerate the analysis of big data, and build models to better explain the experimental findings.
“When it comes to the brain there are so many questions remaining, and the answers cannot come fast enough. Adding this support from the NIH to MPFI’s already exceptional research resources will allow us to make greater progress toward understanding the role of these inputs in memory formation and stability,” she said.
Research reported in this publication was supported by the National Institute on Aging of the National Institutes of Health under Award Number R01AG085899.

Under Anupam’s leadership Occams has grown over 175 times in 10 years and had its best year ever in 2022 while diversifying into new business lines and expanding to Canada and Latin America. Anupam also shared that Occams’ 2023 YTD revenue has already exceeded FY 2022’s and he expects Occams to make it to the 2024 Inc 5000 list as well.
The Inc. 5000 class of 2023 represents companies that have driven rapid revenue growth while navigating inflationary pressure, the rising costs of capital, and seemingly intractable hiring challenges. Among this year’s top 500 companies, the average median 3-year revenue growth rate ticked up to an astonishing 2,238 percent. In all, this year’s Inc. 5000 companies have added 1,187,266 jobs to the economy over the past 3 years.
“Running a business has only gotten harder since the end of the pandemic,” said Inc. editor-in-chief Scott Omelianuk. “To make the Inc. 5000—with the fast growth that requires—is truly an accomplishment. Inc. is thrilled to honor the companies that are building our future.”

Equator Pure Nature Wins Outstanding Intellectual Property Award in Thailand
Bangkok, Thailand, August 24, 2023 –Equator Pure Nature Co., Ltd., a Southeast Asian market leader in natural laundry and home care, won the “IP Champion 2023” award for its outstanding intellectual property at the 2023 Intellectual Property Expo in Bangkok, Thailand.
The prestigious award, given by the Department of Intellectual Property, Ministry of Commerce of Thailand, recognizes innovative and sustainable business leaders that best exemplify the country’s “bio-circular-green” economic principles – similar to sustainability and environmental, social and governance (ESG) frameworks elsewhere.
“This is the biggest government award we’ve ever received. It demonstrates not only our robust intellectual property, including cleaning technology that’s patented in major markets around the world, but also our genuine commitment to creating value-added products that are biodegradable and environment-friendly,” said Peter Wainman, chairman and CEO of Equator Pure Nature (EPN).
EPN’s PiPPER STANDARD branded products are made from a unique pineapple fermentation process that yields powerful, natural enzymes and biosurfactants. This natural cleaning solution, used in laundry detergents and other cleaners, was honored with the “IP Champion 2023” award presented to the company at Sam Yan Mitr Town Hall in Bangkok on Aug. 18. The distinguished award is related to EPN’s patented inventions in fermentation technology.
“More than ever, investors and consumers are looking to not just the United States and Europe but also to Asia, and increasingly Southeast Asia, as a source of innovation,” says former U.S. Ambassador to the Asian Development Bank Curtis Chin, chair of Milken Institute International’s Asia Fellows and the think tank’s senior advisor for global markets.
“From Thailand-produced Pipper Standard household cleaning products which leverage new patented cleantech technology and age-old traditions to Korea’s blockbuster K-dramas & Kpop hits, the power of Asia’s creative economies is on full display these days in ways big and small,” added Chin, a member of EPN’s board of advisors. “Intellectual property is increasingly a critical differentiator and driver of growth for businesses and economies in Asia. There’s much more to a diverse and growing Asia than old stereotypes of labor costs as the key driver of progress.”
PiPPER STANDARD’s natural, hypoallergenic, non-irritation certified cleaning products are a safe and effective alternative to traditional chemical cleaners. The brand’s range of natural products – which include laundry detergents, dishwashing liquids, floor cleaners, bathroom cleaners, hand soaps and many others – has been extensively tested to demonstrate they clean as well as, or better than, chemical cleaners. The brand is a market leader in Southeast Asia in the natural laundry and home care segments and is sold in more than a dozen Asian markets.
Equator Pure Nature and its affiliates have patents issued in markets comprising 65% of the world’s GDP, including Thailand, China, India and other Asian markets, as well as the United States and Europe.
The company is focused on sustainability and the “triple bottom line,” meaning a focus on social and environmental responsibilities, in addition to financial success.
