SUMMARY:Exercise is Medicine: Exploring Exercise in the Treatment and Prevention of Chronic Disease
DESCRIPTION:Exercise is Medicine: Exploring Exercise in the Treatment and Prevention of Chronic Disease\, is a lecture part of the Mind\, Body\, World & You lecture series. \n\n\n\nThis presentation will examine how regular physical activity enhances cardiovascular\, metabolic\, and mental health while significantly improving outcomes for chronic conditions such as Type II diabetes\, various cancers\, cardiovascular disease\, and neurodegenerative disorders. By integrating exercise into daily life\, individuals can reduce disease risk\, improve quality of life\, and promote long-term well-being. \n\n\n\nWhy attend? \n\n\n\n\nGet inspired by innovative research happening right here at the Dunlop School.\n\n\n\nConnect with faculty and classmates who share your interests\, and network with people who might be involved in the kinds of projects or labs you want to join.\n\n\n\nBoost your knowledge in an area that’s not only scientifically fascinating but also relevant to your daily life.\n\n\n\n\nFood will be served after the talk\, so don’t miss this chance to learn\, connect and engage with your community! \n\n\n\nEvent Details:Lecture: 4 to 5 p.m.Food & Networking: 5 to 6 p.m.Where: Student Center\, Crystal Cove Auditorium \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAbout the Speaker:\n\n\n\n\nJames W. Hicks\, PhDAs a broadly trained integrative physiologist\, Jim is internationally recognized for his research on the comparative and evolutionary physiology of the vertebrate cardiopulmonary system. He has authored more than 120 articles covering topics from the evolution of the vertebrate heart to physiological responses in microgravity\, with his work often featured in the media.

SUMMARY:Dean's Distinguished Lecture featuring Craig Stark\, Ph.D.
DESCRIPTION:Thank you for your interest in the Dean’s Distinguished Lecture! Due to overwhelming response\, we have reached capacity and registration is now closed. \n\n\n\nTuesday\, February 25\, 2020\, 4:00 PMCrystal Cove Auditorium\, UCI Student Center \n\n\n\nCraig Stark\, Ph.D.\n\n\n\nJames L. McGaugh Chair in Neurobiology of Learning and MemoryProfessor\, Neurobiology and BehaviorDirector\, Facility for Imaging and Brain Research (FIBRE)Director\, Campus Center for Neuroimaging (CCNI)UC Irvine Charlie Dunlop School of Biological Sciences \n\n\n\nWhy Does Our Memory Decline With Age\n\n\n\n(and can we do anything about it)?\n\n\n\nAbout the Lecture: \n\n\n\nMemory complaints are the most common cognitive concern of individuals as they age\, and it’s no wonder people are worried about it. Problems with memory are a hallmark feature of Alzheimer’s disease and other forms of dementia. That being said\, occasional memory lapses are normal\, even when we’re young. However\, lapses in memory become more common as we age\, even when there are no clinical signs of dementia. \n\n\n\nIn his lecture\, Professor Stark will cover his laboratory’s research into these age-related changes and how we can use sophisticated brain imaging and behavioral techniques to study the effects of aging on our memory. A question naturally arises from this work: Can we do anything to slow or reverse these changes? In the second part of his presentation\, Professor Stark will describe recent efforts made in his lab to adapt rodent studies on “environmental enrichment” to humans. These studies show how engaging in and exploring large virtual worlds can improve memory and may ameliorate age-related memory decline \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe event is open to the public and the UCI campus community.Parking is available for $10 per vehicle at the UCI Student Center Parking Structure.For directions and maps to the UCI Student Center and Parking Structure\, please click here.

SUMMARY:Dean's Distinguished Lecture: October 30\, 2019
DESCRIPTION:Wednesday\, October 30\, 2019\, 4:00 PMCrystal Cove Auditorium\, UC Irvine Student Center\n\n\n\nReception to follow the Lecture at 5:00 PM\n\n\n\nAbout the Lecture:  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nRecently the zebrafish\, a small freshwater fish commonly found in your home aquarium\, has emerged as a powerful new gene discovery and disease model system. Much of what we know about human genes and their role in health and disease has come from research using small animals as model systems. This is possible because two-thirds or more of our genes are similar in structure and function to genes in a fly or a fish. Professor Schilling will discuss how his lab has used zebrafish to study musculoskeletal development\, including genetic causes of birth defects such as cleft palate and muscular dystrophy. He will also discuss how this work has led to insights into the basic biology of cartilage\, bone and tendon development. These include how cells choose to become one of these cell types and how defects in these processes can lead to disease states. Such information gained from studies in a little fish is leading to potential therapies for musculoskeletal disorders. \n\n\n\nDiscovering Genes That Control Development and Cause Disease: A Fish Tale \n\n\n\nREGISTER HER \n\n\n\nReservations are requested.Refreshments will be served at the reception following the lecture.\n\n\n\nThe event is open to the public and the UCI campus community.Parking is available for $10 per vehicle at the UCI Student Center Parking Structure.For directions and maps to the UCI Student Center and Parking Structure\, please click here.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row]

SUMMARY:Dean's Distinguished Lecture: May 15\, 2019
DESCRIPTION:Catching Your Breath:\n\n\n\nAbout the Lecture \n\n\n\nEverytime you breathe in\, you inhale fungal spores. These spores are so tiny that they can travel on the wind for hundreds of miles. In fact\, it’s one way that fungi move around. Most spores won’t hurt you\, but some can cause a pneumonia-like disease called valley fever. Valley fever has recently become a “silent epidemic” in Central California\,  Arizona\, and other areas with hot and dry climates. Could climate change help valley fever fungi move to new places like Southern California? We are studying the link between valley fever fungi and climate to answer this question. Moreover\, we are developing early warning systems in the U.S. and Mexico for valley fever. Health care workers could intervene earlier in valley fever cases\, and possibly avoid new infections. Climate change is one of the great challenges facing our society\, but we hope our research helps you breathe easier. \n\n\n\nHow Climate Change can Alter the Microbiome You Inhale\n\n\n\nFeaturing \n\n\n\nKathleen K. Treseder\, Ph.D.\n\n\n\nProfessorEcology and Evolutionary BiologyUniversity of California\, Irvine \n\n\n\nWednesday\, May 15\, 2019 • 4:00 PMCrystal Cove Auditorium\, UC Irvine Student Center\n\n\n\nReception to follow the lecture at 5:00 PM\n\n\n\nReservations are requested.Refreshments will be served at the reception following the lecture.\n\n\n\nThe event is open to the public and the UCI campus community.Parking is available for $10 per vehicle at the UCI Student Center Parking Structure.For directions and maps to the UCI Student Center and Parking Structure\, please click here.
