Summer Courses & Training Award in Aging, 2001

William T. Speck, M.D.
Marine Biological Laboratory
The Ellison Medical Foundation funded a three-week summer course on the Molecular Biology of Aging at the Marine Biological Laboratory, Woods Hole, MA for the years 2002 through 2004. The 2004 course, directed by Drs. Steven Austad and Gary Ruvkun, will be held August 2-21, 2004 at the Marine Biological Laboratory, Woods Hole, MA. Funds cover all expenses for attending students (graduate students, post-docs, junior faculty, and senior investigators). Morning lectures in Model Systems (yeast and C. elegans), DNA Mutation and Repair, Telomeres and Cellular Senescence, Mammalian Aging, and Evolutionary Considerations are followed by laboratory exercises. For additional information and application procedures, see: http://courses.mbl.edu. Course directors in previous years were Drs. Leonard Guarente and Douglas C. Wallace.
