The Gordon Research Seminar on Biology of Aging

The Gordon Research Seminar on Biology of Aging is a unique forum for graduate students, post-docs, and other scientists with comparable levels of experience and education to present and exchange new data and cutting edge ideas. 

The focus of this meeting will be the fundamental processes and pathways of aging emerging from studies of model organisms, how these concepts advance our understanding of human aging and age associated diseases, and how this knowledge can be translated into successful interventions to ameliorate the functional decline of age. The GRS will provide junior scientists a venue to present, discuss and receive feedback on their research, further their knowledge of the established principles as well as relevant pending questions in the field, promote interactions and constructive networking with successful established scientists as well as with their peers, and engage in workshops with role models from academia, industry and government on career development.
