Designed to bring together the state’s preeminent researchers, innovative leaders, and elected officials who want to stay on top of important advancements being made in our state, each Discovery Series program includes lunch, networking time, a Q&A session, and an opportunity to meet the speaker.

From the biology of aging to organ preservation to cancers in clams, this season is sure to captivate all! Join us for lunch on the second Friday of almost every month (Sept-June, except December) to get educated, inspired, and connected.

April:

Dr. Alice Kane, the newest faculty member at ISB, invites you to explore the complex biology of aging and frailty. This session will cover her research on understanding the significant variability in health outcomes among individuals as they age, focusing on both male and female perspectives. Dr. Kane will highlight her analysis of a unique longitudinal dataset from aging mice, aimed at predicting health and function across the lifespan. Join us to learn how this research can lead to new insights and interventions to promote healthier aging for all.
