Periodic Tables Science Cafe: What can lemurs teach us about getting old?
Event Details
From urine samples to evolutionary theory, this talk explores why some primates escape age-related inflammation—and what that means for how we think about aging.
Elaine Guevara is an evolutionary anthropologist at Duke who uses a combination of molecular, computational, and field methods to gain insights into the inner workings of the fascinating creatures known as lemurs, as well as how and why we age.\
