DESCRIPTION:Thomas A. Rando\, MD\, PhD is Professor of Neurology and Neuro
 logical Sciences and Director of the Glenn Laboratories for the Biology of
  Aging at Stanford University School of Medicine. Research in the Rando la
 boratory concerns the basic biology of stem cells\, how stem cells functio
 n in adult tissue homeostasis\, and how their function is altered in degen
 erative diseases and during aging. Groundbreaking work from his laboratory
 \, using heterochronic parabiosis\, showed that the age-related decline in
  stem cell function is due to influences of the aged environmental. Dr. Ra
 ndo has received numerous awards\, including a Paul Beeson Physician Facul
 ty Scholar in Aging\, a Senior Scholar Award from the Ellison Medical Foun
 dation\, and a “Breakthroughs in Gerontology” Award from the American 
 Federation for Aging Research. He is a recipient of the received the prest
 igious NIH Director’s Pioneer Award for his work at the interface betwee
 n stem cell biology and the biology of aging\, and he received a Transform
 ative Research Award from the NIH for studies of the mechanisms of the enh
 ancement of cognitive function by physical activity and changes that occur
  in this “muscle-brain axis” that occur during aging. Dr. Rando is an 
 elected member of the National Academy of Medicine. \nSpeakers:\nProf Thom
