SUBMIT ABSTRACTS BY OCTOBER 3

The Annual Forum on Aging, now in its 26th year, informs gerontology researchers and the community about aging research at UTMB. It allows faculty, fellows, and students to showcase their research and inform the UTMB community about the aging research being conducted. It is also a great networking event and opportunity to learn about the research resources available from the Sealy Center on Aging and Research Services. Monetary awards for best student and fellow posters will be given, sponsored by the Sealy Center on Aging, the Center for Interdisciplinary Research in Women’s Health, and Sigma Xi.
