Hosted by the Healthy Aging and Longevity Institute (HALO) at the University of Washington in Seattle, WA, the 31st Annual Summer Training Course provides intense exposure to current concepts in experimental aging research to approximately 20 research scientists to facilitate development of independent research programs in the basic biology of aging. It is primarily designed for junior faculty and advanced fellows with at least two years of postdoctoral experience in the mechanisms of aging and disease.
The curriculum will include:
- Overview lectures on important topics in modern aging research;
- Development workshops where trainees present a research proposal and receive critical feedback by experienced workshop
faculty; - Faculty research talks and topics focused on mentoring and career development.
The faculty for the 2024 course includes leading scientists in the aging and longevity research community. There is NO COURSE FEE. Travel and accommodations are sponsored by a grant from the National Institute on Aging and meals and networking events are supported by sponsors.
