    如果需要長期護理,錢要從哪裡來?

    In 2008, the stock market crashed and many people’s 401K diminished overnight. People have to delay their retirement date for years. What is your plan if it happens again?
    Do you know the taxation can largely affect your retirement funds? Is your retirement fund in a balanced portfolio for taxation? What if you outlive your retirement fund?
    Do you need to prepare Long Term Care funds? How??
    Lifetime income is very important nowadays when the social security is not in a good shape. We will answer everything you need to know about your retirement planning. Worry-free retirement life is not a dream.

    — 幹細胞治療的應用及展望 Application and Prospect of Stem Cell Therapy

    —斷捨離, 捐物募資大集合FUNDrive-----Eco-friendly fundraising for TACSA's scholarship fund


    << 活動一>>

    講座: 幹細胞治療的應用及展望 Application and Prospect of Stem Cell Therapy

    Time 時間: 10am-12pm

    Guest Speaker: Professor Lu-Chang, A-Lien 呂阿戀教授 

    Host:  Dr. Chi Shiang Chen 陳吉祥醫師 


    演講內容簡介:

    我們常常想問:長生不老和返老還童有可能嗎? 幹細胞可否供給我們答案。請大家來聽呂阿戀教授的演講。

    幹細胞是原始的、未特化的細胞,而保有轉化成其它細胞類型的能力。這種能力使得幹細胞能夠用來修護再生某種受到破壞的組織或器官。幹細胞有很多種類包括:1.胚胎幹細胞 (Embryonic stem cells), 2.成體幹細胞 (Adult stem cells), 3.誘導多能幹細胞 (iPSCs), 4. 癌幹細胞 (Cancer stem cells)。

    以幹細胞來做治療的方法:

    1. 利用幹細胞來尋求某些新的藥品。

    2. 利用幹細胞來治療各種疾病。

    各種疾病包括癌症、震顫麻痺症 (Parkinson’s disease) 、脊髓受傷 (Spinal cord injuries) 、肌萎縮性側索硬化症(Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis-ALS) 、多發性硬化症 (Multiple sclerosis)、及肌肉的損傷等。

    3. 器官移植的可能性。

    利用幹細胞分化成各種器官,可以移植到自體或異體。

    不久的將來,這些疾病的治療和器官移植,將因幹細胞研究的成果,而漸見曙光。不過以目前的技術來講,如果移植的幹細胞失去了控制,這些幹細胞則有可能形成腫瘤或癌症的可能性。目前用幹細胞能夠治療的疾病還是有限。必須小心受騙於非法的治療中心。

       

    Introduction to the speech:

    We often want to ask: Is it possible to live forever and rejuvenate? Can stem cells provide us with answers? Please join us to attend the speech given by Professor Lu-Chang, A-Lien.

    Stem cells are primitive, unspecialized cells that retain the ability to transform into other cell types. This ability allows stem cells to be used to repair a damaged tissue or organ. There are many types of stem cells including: 1. Embryonic stem cells, 2. Adult stem cells, 3. Induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs), 4. Cancer stem cells.

    The method of treating with stem cells:


    1. Use stem cells to find new drugs.

    2. Use stem cells to treat various diseases.

    Various diseases include cancer, Parkinson's disease, Spinal cord injuries, Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), Multiple sclerosis, and Muscle damage. .

    3. The possibility of organ transplantation.

    Differentiation of stem cells into various organs can be transplanted to autologous or allogeneic.

    In the near future, the treatment and organ transplantation of these diseases will gradually dawn on the results of stem cell research. However, in the current technology, if the transplanted stem cells lose control, these stem cells may form a tumor or cancer. The diseases that can currently be treated with stem cells are still limited. Care must be taken to those illegal treatment centers.

    桃園市長鄭文燦蒞臨華府台灣同鄉會演講新聞稿

    三月五日晚間,桃園市長鄭文燦應大華府、巴爾的摩台灣同鄉會共同邀請,前往馬州台灣人長老教會向近 200 多位鄉親演說「讓台灣走在正確的道路上」。在週間的上班日,同鄉能有這樣熱烈的支持,充分顯示鄭市長的高人氣。

    鄭市長對鄉親們表示這次造訪華府「不是為了選總統而來,而是幫台灣傳達聲音,我支持我們總統蔡英文」,調侃了緊接在其後來訪美國的台北市長柯文哲。鄭市長指出,他向白宮、國務院官員等強調台美合作共同應對區域威脅的必要性,以及台灣在美國的自由印太戰略之下所能扮演角色。

    當被問及為何能夠在這次的華府行能夠有歷史性的突破時,鄭市長除了感謝第一線的外交人員的努力,他也表示蔡英文的維持現狀政策受到美國政府肯定,同時不分民主、共和黨派的國會議員也對蔡總統處理兩岸、國際關係的處理得當,使得美國友人認定中國才是區域不穩定的製造者而非台灣。他認為這是華府行成功的條件之一。

    除了外交、國防之外,鄭市長也提及了許多桃園地方經驗。他表示剛就任之時,桃園許多地方缺乏基礎建設,例如在復興區後山的高義、三光過去因為人口稀少,缺乏招商誘因, 過去連最基本的提款機以及加油站都沒有,是在他帶領的桃園市政府團隊上任後才興建。儘管困難,鄭市長以輕鬆的語氣帶過,「地我幫忙找、財源我幫忙籌」讓觀眾印象深刻。

    長老教會的姊妹們童麗珠,兵素琴,陳雪霞,李玉春,胡玉蓉幫同鄉準備了豐盛的點心, 鄭市長也貼心地準備了精緻的感謝狀給這些辛苦的幕後工作人員。由這點小節,就可看出市長體貼人心,施政成功的原因。主辦的華府同鄉會及巴爾的摩台灣同鄉會也準備了具有美國國徽,代表力量、勇氣與獨立自主爭象徵的紀念品送給鄭市長。

    活動的最後,在兩會會長以及同鄉會理事的帶領下,鄭文燦市長也很親民地一起與鄉親們合唱他第一次競選市長的主題曲,台語歌手翁立友的「堅持」,象徵堅持台灣民主自由的心,不因任何情況而改變。

    桃園市長鄭文燦是去年地方九合一選舉中,民進黨唯三連任成功的市長。由於桃園長期由

    國民黨執政,因此被視為民進黨的接班人選之一。這場演講也因而廣受台美人鄉親歡迎。演講結束後,鄉親更是包圍鄭市長要求照相,久久才散去。

    華府台灣同鄉會會長陳桂鈴表示,同鄉會非常歡迎包含鄭文燦市長在內關懷台灣的政治人物來訪。她也期許未來每個台灣政治人物都能確保台灣得來不易的民主與自由。
