SUMMARY:Symposium on Reproductive Health and Aging
DESCRIPTION:The Huck Center for Reproductive Biology and Health and the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology\, Division of Endocrinology and Infertility\, are offering a joint symposium focused on Reproductive Health and Aging. This symposium explores how reproductive processes and aging shape one another from early gametogenesis to puberty and fertility changes during pregnancy and beyond.\n \nThrough interdisciplinary talks and poster presentations\, experts will examine the roles of hormones\, gonadal function\, and other diseases in shaping reproductive trajectories and healthy aging. Sessions will translate emerging research humans and animal models into practical strategies for clinical care\, public health\, and patient education. Attendees will leave with a clearer framework for anticipating age-related reproductive transitions and improving reproductive health. \nEvent Details and Registration

SUMMARY:Heart & Vascular Institute Cardiovascular Symposium: Cardiovascular Disease from Prevention to Intervention
DESCRIPTION:Registration is now open for the Heart & Vascular Institute Cardiovascular Symposium: Cardiovascular Disease from Prevention to Intervention\, a continuing education service of Penn State College of Medicine taking place Friday\, May 8\, 2026\, as an internet live course and live at the University Conference Center. View details and register here. \nCardiovascular Disease (CVD) is the leading cause of mortality and morbidity in the US. This is due to the lack of adequate therapeutics that can target underlying disease mechanisms and stop disease progression. Due to this\, it is being increasingly recognized by the physicians\, learners and community partners that\, in addition to therapy\, prevention (to stop disease progression) is critical to control progression of CVDs in patients. However\, lack of understanding and unavailability of universally accepted standard practices hamper adequate realization of these goals in a clinical setting. This symposium will bring together a group of physicians\, practitioners and basic science researchers to discuss new inflammatory and immunological molecular mechanisms of CVDs and the role of preventive therapies in synergizing existing therapeutics to stop disease progression and promote patient well-being.
