Commemorating the 50th Anniversary of Title IX, the landmark law barring sex discrimination in schools and allowing women greater access to educational and athletic opportunities. During the first session, learn about the history of Title IX overall and at the University, including its role in the political and cultural climate at the time it was introduced and as it evolved, the transformations to address harassment and sexual assault, and recent transgender and sexual orientation protections. In the second session, we dive deeper into the history and status of Title IX in athletics, generally and at the University, with a panel of athletics staff and alumnae athletes.[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space image_repeat=”no-repeat”][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n

The Matthew E. Fairbank Lecture: Promoting Vitality in Aging through Discovery, Collaboration, & Innovation
\nFeaturing:
\n<\/strong>Yeates Conwell, MD<\/em>

The University of Rochester Aging Institute (URAI) was established to extend the University\u2019s legacy of helping humanity \u201cnot only to add years to our life, but to add life to our years.\u201d That was a phrase Dr. T. Franklin Williams, a University of Rochester Medical Center faculty member widely recognized as the founder of modern geriatric medicine, used to describe his work. Built on that foundation, the URAI connects the work of clinicians, educators, and investigators focused on one mission: to promote vitality in aging. Leaders from URAI will share the Institute\u2019s vision as well as research discoveries that could slow aging and achieve rejuvenation in humans, and explore the reciprocal relationships between emotional and brain health as we age.<\/p>\n

The Matthew E. Fairbank lecture was established in 1982 in honor of Matthew and Ruth Harmon Fairbank and its purpose is to encourage interest in, and understanding of, medical conditions associated with aging.<\/em><\/p>\n

Ocean Acidification: The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly
\nFeaturing:
\n<\/strong>John Kessler, PhD moderated by Katherine Gregory
\n<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

The oceans are a significant absorber of greenhouse gases released due to human activities as well as the heat retained in the Earth system from their increased concentrations. From one point of view, this is good since it helps to mitigate the direct impacts of our modern global climate change. However, this absorption is not without its consequences, some of which include ocean acidification, the ocean\u2019s ability to further remove atmospheric greenhouse gases, and additional ocean acidification feedback mechanisms. This talk will explore these topics presenting and discussing modern data on ocean acidification and greenhouse gas dynamics, and the impact on our society.<\/p>\n
