- Inflammation, CRP and Cardiovascular Risk: Is it Time to Change Framiningham Risk Score?
-
- - Paul M Ridker, M.D., M.P.H. Harvard Medical School (2010/03/04)
- - Category : Wednesday Afternoon Lectures
- While lipids play a crucial role in myocardial infarction, half of all cardiovascular events occur among individuals with normal lipid levels.
Fortunately, in addition to being a disorder of lipids, atherothrombosis is now widely understood to be an inflammatory disease and several biomarkers of inflammation have proven effective in identifying individuals at high risk for future vascular events. Clinically, the most important of these biomarkers is C-reactive protein (CRP), a pentraxin pattern recognition molecule of innate immunity that is commonly measured as an adjunct to global risk prediction.

- - Category : Special
- The NIH Clinical and Translational Science Award (CTSA) is a Roadmap initiative (RFA-RM-06-002; RFA-RM-06-001) to catalyze the development of a new discipline of clinical and translational science. All NIH institutes and centers are participating and partnerships in the CTSA are strongly encouraged between schools of medicine, dentistry, nursing, pharmacy, osteopathy, public health, engineering and other clinically related institutions and clinical research entities.
At this CTSA pre-submission VideoCast, which is a follow-up to the initial pre-submission meeting held on Oct 17th, NCRR staff will explain the goals and objectives of the CTSA program. Staff of NCCAM, NIDCR, and NINR will also be available to help answer questions related to partnerships between various clinically related institutions, disciplines, entities and organizations.

- Impact of Social Institutions on Health: The Case for Marriage
-
- - Linda J. Waite, Ph.D., University of Chicago (2010/03/04)
- - Category : Wednesday Afternoon Lectures
- Married men and women live longer lives than those who are not married. Transitions into marriage reduce the risk of dying, and transitions out increase it. In this lecture, I examine the link between marriage and health that underlies these differentials in mortality. I assess the relationship between marriage and three key dimensions of health: physical health; emotional well-being; and, cognitive function. I argue that the social institution of marriage changes the choices and behaviors of individuals in ways that foster good health and long life. I elaborate on this argument to include family more generally, in particular those with whom one lives. I argue that family members living together provide resources to each other, but also make demands.

- - Category : Work/Life Center
- When does a parent intervene in a child's life at school? What are the current strategies for dealing with bullies? What can a parent do when their child says, "My teacher is so mean?" This seminar will discuss how parents can take a positive and active role during elementary and middle school. Learn strategies for helping children become successful in dealing with peers who try to bully or teachers who use negative or hurtful methods.

- Alternative Splicing in Health and Disease

- - Category : Wednesday Afternoon Lectures
Talk Summary by Adrian Krainer:
I will review basic aspects of how exons and introns are correctly identified and processed by the spliceosome in the context of constitutive and alternative splicing. I will discuss the major determinants of exon identity, and describe experimental approaches to understand how mutations in the coding sequence of genes can lead to aberrant splicing of their transcripts. I will describe a mechanism-based therapeutic approach to correct splicing, using spinal muscular atrophy as an example. Finally, I will describe the involvement of alternative splicing factors in cancer.
