BIOLOGY OF AGING AND AGE-RELATED DISEASES

MEDICINE 932
과목 설명

Examine the biology of aging and related clinical aspects in geriatric care. Designed for medical students interested in understanding the biology of aging and how it relates to translational biomedical and clinical research as well as clinical practice. Aging and age-related diseases are examined via the combined expertise of basic scientists and clinicians in blocks of two lectures. Case studies and clinical research study design workshops provide the means to integrate didactic content in real world application. Additional materials include video vignettes focused on aging biology and on pharmacological interventions for the most common geriatric conditions.

NUTRSCI 655

Interpret research relating to nutrition during the aging process. Gain an understanding of acute and chronic conditions in older persons, both in hospital and the community. Examine the impact of aging on organ systems and address the relationship among physiologic aging, nutrition, and disease.

PERCEPTIONS OF AGING

MEDICINE 725

Designed to provide a broad understanding of how aging and the science of aging is perceived by the public, with an emphasis on the critical examination of movies in which aging is a major theme. Discussion topics will include the perception of aging and age-related diseases as a positive or negative theme; the biological plausibility of pro- or anti-aging mechanisms; the accuracy of aging science in media; and the clinical, cultural, and personal perceptions of end-of-life care, death, and bereavement.
