Year End Fundraisers For Rejuvenation Research at SENS Research Foundation and LEV Foundation
When it comes to treating aging as a medical condition, it is important to fund the right sort of research program. All too much of the field of translational aging research is focused on finding ways to produce small benefits, such as via the use of repurposed existing supplements. This may produce gains for investors, but it won't meaningfully change the present shape of a human life. We need to do better than that. Fortunately, there are a small number of non-profit organizations and academic groups focused on development of the means of rejuvenation, rather than on means of modestly slowing aging. Two of the best are t...

Updates for Our Medicine and the Arts Feature
Medicine and the Arts (MATA) is Academic Medicine’s longest-running feature. Since 1991, MATA authors have explored the relationship between art and the teaching, learning, and practice of medicine. MATA has long served a unique role in the literature of health professions education by inviting moments of reflection on medicine as seen through the lens of the arts and humanities. To ensure the ongoing success of the MATA feature in an ever-evolving digital landscape, we are announcing some updates to how we handle the artwork that forms the basis of all MATA pieces.
Each MATA piece comprises a work of art—a pa...

State of the lab 10 and 11 - the first years at ETH Zurich
Yet another lake by a mountain in SwitzerlandThis blog post is part of a(nearly) yearly series on running a research group in academia. This post summarizes years 10 and 11, the first 2 years after moving to ETH Zurich. It also marks the end of the first decade as a research group leader, which is meaningful only because we have ten fingers and use 10 as a base for counting but I digress. There has been a lot to adapt to in moving to a new country including all the basics of moving, re-building the group and starting teaching. It was a lot easier than the first time around since I didn ' t have to set up the group from zer...

Turnarounds are Talent Magnets: University of Chicago Medical Center
By JEFF GOLDSMITH
Like birds of a feather, talent in healthcare management often gathers in flocks. The University of Minnesota, University of Michigan and University of Iowa healthcare management programs are all justly famous for graduating, over many decades, an exceptional number of future transformative healthcare leaders. But sometimes, talent comes from the “street”- challenging healthcare turnarounds that attract risk-taking leaders who, in turn, gather young talent around them. The University of Chicago’s urban academic health center has been one of these places.
The U of C was (and remains) the la...
