Your Host & Lead Investigator
Janice Cunningham, MPH

​I created ASL with Sibel to be a trusted, well filtered information portal - to share what we're learning on our journey's with those that don't have the time, training or interest for doing the geeky deep dives that I can't resist.
​​
Here is some background on what informs analysis and shapes my biases...
​​​
CREDENTIALS & EXPERIENCE
-
Master of Public Health (MPH) health communications (influencing behaviors for social good).
-
Early champion for Digital health innovation - mobile Health (mHealth) and telemedicine.
-
Instructor training in Chen Taiji and Qi Gong; practitioner of same and other mindfulness practices.
​​
BELIEFS
-
Brain health is the foundation for quality of life: physical, mental and spiritual.
-
Integrating Modern Science with Ancient Wisdom provides a useful, more holistic perspective.
-
We're all an N-of-1 (Study of 1). What works for me may not work for you.
​
RED FLAG TRIGGERS
The words... "Just have a little willpower" or "That's normal aging. Just accept it."
​​
BRAIN-FIRST PRIORITY
My father passing from Alzheimer's Disease (AD) complications triggered my deep dive into the latest research on dementia. The evidence was clear: lifestyle habits were better than any drug available to help prevent or slow down AD. Even better, these habits overlapped with virtually all those behaviors recommended for our physical and emotional wellbeing.
​​
These deep dives also led to new insights for building habits that stick - patterns of living traits that tap into the natural workings of brain.
For me the evidence is clear: we really can change at any age! ​​​​​​​If any of this resonates with you, I hope you'll join us on this journey.
​​
Be safe. Be well.

Advisor & Chief Skeptic
Sibel Tunali
London, England
Greetings from London!
​
We all know how easy it is to believe what we want to believe, so my primary role on the ASL Project is designated skeptic.
I look for the potential alternatives to the conclusions we come to that feel so obvious at first glance. I also look at the doability test, knowing the practical challenges of what it means to juggle life as a mother, business executive, and more recently, cancer survivor working to regain her energy and vitality!
​
A bit more about me:
-
I apply my years as an engineer turned executive in the telecom sector to advise and mentor food, wellness, and technology startups.
-
Being the mother of my twins has shaped my life priorities.
-
I see the world through a new lens after multiple years of cancer treatment.
​
Please join me in this role of advisor and skeptic through our contact form and occasional survey.
This is a living project with an ever evolving process; your perspectives will help make the ASL Project more useful for everyone!
​
Wishing you well,
Sibel
