Thank you to all who joined us for the latest installment of New Frontiers in Basic Science: Applying New Technology to Endocrine Research. Moderated by Holly M. Brown-Borg, PhD, this year's theme was on the topic of conducting research at the interface between endocrinology and aging.
Endocrine scientists make unique contributions to our fundamental understanding of the aging process and also how aging influences the development of endocrine-related diseases. Join us for a two-day program featuring keynote discussions and short presentations from trainee and early career members who conduct research that explores the connections between hormone science and aging.
