How to age healthy – FRIAS Research Focus analyses membrane trafficking in aging and disease
One of the biggest challenges for modern societies is how to deal with age-related diseases. Due to improved medical care, life expectancy has increased worldwide – however, the process of aging causes impairments of physiological functions and a higher susceptibility to diseases, which negatively affect the quality of life.
Start of the fourth round of FRIAS Lunch Lectures in the winter term 2015/16 on the topic of “Paradigm Shifts in Science”
Just like societies and institutions, science and research are subject to constant change. How have fundamental assumptions, definitions and methods of scientific research changed in the course of the last 50 years? The upcoming (fourth) FRIAS Lunch Lecture series will deal with this issue, beginning on October 22, 2015. Every second Thursday, these lectures will take place in lecture hall HS 1015 (KG 1) from 12:15 – 1:00 p.m. Fellows at FRIAS will give a short lecture on the topic of paradigm shifts in their respective discipline, followed by a discussion with the students.
