Access to non-UTMB email accounts to be blocked beginning July 6, 2022 | |
First Published 6/29/2022 | |
To ensure data security and the integrity of our information resources, UTMB will begin to block direct access to non-UTMB email services (i.e. personal mail accounts hosted with services such as Gmail, Hotmail and Yahoo!) from UTMB-owned or managed devices, and from UTMB’s protected networks. External mail services have the potential to circumvent/bypass existing UTMB security controls, filters and other measures in place to protect university data, infrastructure and users’ UTMB mail accounts from malicious programs and other threats. Orchestrated by the Office of Information Security, the new restrictions will 1) block web access to non-UTMB email services for any device on a protected UTMB network (access will still be allowed on “UTMB-guest wireless”), and 2) prevent the adding of these email services to Exchange/Outlook profiles on UTMB-managed devices. These new restrictions will not block access to these services from a personal device (such as a mobile phone or personal laptop) accessing the Internet via non-UTMB networks (or the UTMB-guest wireless network). They will not block sending/receiving emails to or from these services. We understand that this necessary change may present an inconvenience, and thank you in advance for helping us protect our people and resources from ever-more-challenging and numerous threats. These controls will be effective beginning July 6, 2022. For more information, please visit www.utmb.edu/infosec/personalemail |

Mechanomedicine of Aging Symposium 7-1-2022 @ 1pm-5:10pm | |
First Published 6/30/2022 | |
With the increase in lifespan from better medical treatments, there is great interest in
mitigating the quality‐of‐life compromises that come with aging. Much evidence indicates that exercise
inhibits many aging processes and does so through mechanical reversal of senescence at a cellular level.
We will explore some of the molecular mechanisms whereby exercise and other mechanical effects can
inhibit or reverse the senescence process.
We want to stimulate interactions at UTMB on the studies of aging with particular emphasis on
the molecular mechanisms that can mitigate aging through exercise or other mechanical activities.
Complex metabolic and signaling pathways are altered with cell senescence and the increase in the
percentage of senescent cells with age underlies many aging abnormalities. These include diabetes,
arthritis,
susceptibility to infection, cardiovascular and other disorders.https://utmb.hosted.panopto.com/Panopto/Pages/Viewer.aspx?id=696f568f-7ec5-4577-8882-aec200fb7ddc
