HAPPENING TODAY- CAIRIBU's Uro-Aging Research Interest Group commences! The Uro-Aging Research Interest Group (UroAging RIG) will connect uro-aging interested CAIRIBU and non-CAIRIBU investigators from a variety of fields including but not limited to urology, urogynecology, and geroscience. To kick-start this group, we are scheduling monthly knowledge exchanges to know each other, discuss recent research, develop collaborations, and strategize on ways to advance uro-aging research. Join our first knowledge exchange on Monday, September 22 at 3:00 PM ET to hear from Indira Mysorekar, PhD (Baylor College of Medicine) and Scott Bauer, MD, MS (University of California, San Francisco) who will kick off this series by reviewing the field of uro-aging research and stimulating discussion on a collaborative, interdisciplinary research agenda.
