Introduction to Project Reminisce

Every 65 seconds. That is how fast someone in the U.S. discovers they have Alzheimer’s disease. Behind that number isn't just a clinical statistic. It is a real person, a scared family, and a lifetime of precious memories slowly slipping away. Most health campaigns just throw these numbers at you on a flyer and leave it at that. Our team wanted to do something real. And we want to help you make a difference, too. I am so proud to finally announce the launch of Project Reminisce, a student-led public health campaign run by our Mountain Vista High School HOSA chapter team. Our goal is simple: we want to educate our classmates, support family caregivers, and actively map real clinical data patterns. Our team sourced an anonymized dataset of 6,130 brain MRI scans on Kaggle. From there, we configured an open-source, interactive citizen science workspace on the Zooniverse Lab platform. We are opening this pipeline up to any student volunteer who wants to contribute to real-world medical data processing. By joining our network, you will help us classify structural brain changes and earn verified community service hours for your school or club chapter. Our team intentionally timed our campaign launch video to run for exactly 33 seconds.

Why?

Because by the year 2050, a new case of Alzheimer's is projected to drop to every 33 seconds in the United States. If you are a student who needs verified volunteer hours, or if you want to see how youth-led citizen science can accelerate global clinical research, join our mapping initiative tonight.
