SUMMARY:Alzheimer’s Disease and Related Dementia Translational Work-in-Progress (ADRD-TWIP): Luciana Mascarenhas Fonseca\, PhD
DESCRIPTION:“Cognitive Vulnerability to Glucose\, Alzheimer’s disease and Down Syndrome”\nDate and Time: Wednesday\, May 6 at 12 PM \nZoom: https://rutgers.zoom.us/j/94769804345?pwd=IMqJIIvuDmRl997R6O4U4NKbt6UWfs.1\nMeeting ID: 947 6980 4345; Password: 454288 \nSpeaker: Luciana Mascarenhas Fonseca\, PhD\nAssistant Professor of Psychiatry\, RWJMS Core faculty member\, Herbert and Jacqueline Krieger Klein Alzheimer’s Research Center\, Brain Health Institute\, and Institute for Health \nDr.Fonseca will discuss a potential NIH grant application focused on Down syndrome\, Alzheimer’s disease and cognitive vulnerability to glucose fluctuations. Her presentation will outline proposed aims and methodological approaches to better understand how metabolic variability may influence cognitive function in this population\, with the goal of identifying early markers of risk and opportunities for intervention. She welcomes feedback on refining the scientific questions and study design. Dr. Fonseca’s research focuses on early cognitive markers of dementia and brain aging in minority populations\, including within-person variability\, digital cognitive tools\, and ecological momentary assessment\, to improve early detection and advance precision aging research. \nThis is not a formal talk and discussion and critique are very much welcome.

SUMMARY:2026 Morris-Inouye Lecture Series | Keynote Speaker: David Julius\, PhD\, Nobel Laureate
DESCRIPTION:Dr. David Julius will deliver the 2026 Morris-Inouye Lecture at 4:00 p.m. on Wednesday\, May 6\, 2026\, in the Main Lecture Hall of Robert Wood Johnson Medical School in Piscataway.  His lecture is titled “Gut Feelings:  Probing mechanisms of visceral pain.”  A reception will follow.\n \nGraduate students and postdocs are invited to have lunch with Dr. Julius on May 6 from 12-1pm at 675 Hoes Lane West\, RWJMS Research Tower\, Deans Conference Room 123.  Trainees can sign up for lunch on this sheet.\n\nDr. Julius shared the 2021 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine with Ardem Patapoutian for work that transformed our understanding of how the nervous system senses temperature and mechanical stimuli.  He discovered the ion channel that detects both the “hot” ingredient in chili peppers and painfully elevated temperature.  His laboratory continues to investigate the structure\, regulation\, and tissue distribution of sensory ion channels.\n\nIn addition to the Nobel\, Dr. Julius’ other honors including a Breakthrough Prize in Life Sciences and the Kavli Prize in Neuroscience\, which he also shared with Dr. Patapoutian. He is professor and chair of the Department of Physiology at UCSF\, where he holds the Morris Herzstein Chair in Molecular Biology and Medicine. He is a member of the National Academy of Sciences\, the National Academy of Medicine\, and the AAAS.\n\nAll are welcome to attend!  We invite you to join us for what promises to be a memorable event.\n\nSpeaker:  David Julius\, PhD\, Nobel Laureate\nTitle:  Gut Feelings:  Probing mechanisms of visceral pain\nDate:  Wednesday\, May 6\, 2026\nLocation:  RWJMS Main Lecture Hall\, 675 Hoes Lane West\, Piscataway\, NJ  08854
