January Grandparents Support Group Meeting

January 19 @ 10:00 am - 11:30 am

Grandparents Support Group

SARRC’s January 2024 Grandparents Support Group will be held on Friday, January 19 from 10-11:30 a.m. Our speaker will be Matt Huentelman, PhD, professor at Translational Genomics Research Institute (TGen).

Dr. Huentelman will share more on how the body’s longevity typically outlasts our brain health. This gap significantly impacts personal independence and well-being, as well as societal economic standing. An emerging approach to better understand brain aging and more personally fine-tune anti-aging approaches is known as Precision
Aging; wherein a person’s own data helps to drive the treatment approaches to better help the aging brain match the aging body. During this presentation, Dr. Huentelman will introduce the concept of Precision Aging and explain how this approach may power the way we age and avoid age-related brain diseases in the future.

Location

SARRC’s Phoenix Campus: 300 N 18th Street, Phoenix, AZ 85006
