The first session is beginning! We're starting off with Dr. Adam Salmon and his talk, "Intervention with rapamycin to promote longevity and health in non-human primate." #AGE2024

What a great morning session! Session 3: Neurodegeneration and Brain Aging begins at 1:45!!

📢Register now for the 2024 Masoro-Barshop Conference on Aging, taking place Oct 10-13 at the Mayan Dude Ranch in Bandera, TX. "Targeting #MetabolicFunction to Improve #Aging and #Healthspan." More info here: bit.ly/3UG2bew

Did you know? Captopril, which the ITP showed extends male mouse lifespan, is derived from viper venom? Learning at Masoro-Barshop Conference on Aging.

After a heavy meal of TX BBQ, we kicked off the conference with talks telling us that's not a great idea for health from Ian Lanza, Annabelle Wang, and Reema Kaddurah-Daouk.

Guess what? Diet and exercise preserve aging muscle function. In our morning session, talks from Betinna Mittendorfer, Adam Konopka and Chris Adams discussed mechanisms, outcomes and potential interventions for healthy aging.

In our late morning session, learning about mitochondria and resilience relationships and potential interventions including semaglutide (not just for Hollywood). Talks from Tiffany Cortes, Irina Conboy, and Saurav Saha.

Again, this information would have been helpful before lunch! Holly Brown Borg directing growth hormone's role on methionine metabolism, and Na Zhao showing APOE-specific outcomes of calorie restriction

In our last session of the day, Andrey Parkhitko brought us up to the state is science in methionine restriction, Masahiro Morita identified a novel metabolic pathway in RNA regulation, and UTHSA trainee Eduardo Gutierrez Kuri talked about myelin metabolism in aging

Really engaging poster session to close the night. So much cool geroscience! Ready to soak up some local flavor and looking forward to tomorrow's sessions!

Thinking about your eating habits? Maybe trying to cut out late night snacks? Talks from Jake Chen, Joe Bass, and Lisa Kilpela started our Sat morning sessions looking at how timing and disordered eating affect aging health.
