Nathan Shock Centers Newsletter: Early Spring 2018

As the Coordinating Center of the Nathan Shock Centers of Excellence in the Basic Biology of Aging, AFAR is pleased to share the Early Spring 2018 newsletter featuring updates and opportunities from the Centers and the field.

In this newsletter:

• Listen to recent webinar, co-hosted by the Nathan Shock Centers Coordinating Center and the Indiana University School of Public Health-Bloomington focused on “Incorporating Rigor, Reproducibility, and Transparency Into Aging Projects and Papers.”
• Read the Investigator Spotlight on Dr. Catherine Kaczorowski, a Pilot Grantee and assistant professor at the Jackson Laboratory Nathan Shock Center
• Register for the 2018 Nathan Shock Centers Summit and other NSC events
• Explore Funding Opportunities

An initiative funded by Division of Aging Biology of the National Institute on Aging, the mission of the Nathan Shock Centers Coordinating Center is to provide leadership in the pursuit of the basic research into the biology of aging.

Read the newsletter here, and sign up for future newsletters here.
