The objective of these Symposia has been to bring together a group of scientists who made recent major advances in the study of CNS and endocrine aging, from a basic science viewpoint to practical issues in the treatment and care of the elderly and patients with age-related CNS diseases. The next [2002] symposium will cover topics including cellular and molecular mechanisms, insulin and IGF, amyloid precursor protein, neuroprotection, circadian rhythms, nutrition, melatonin, caloric restriction, reproduction and fertility, auditory systems, and evolutionary concepts.
The format of the meeting, four and a half days with brief lectures and poster sessions, ample time for discussion, and afternoons left open for recreation and informal interactions, creates an atmosphere conducive to in-depth analysis of research results and their implications. Our previous five Symposia have attracted speakers, poster presenters, session chairmen and attendees from 27 countries. The site of the Symposium will be the Mehrerau Monastery [established in 1090], which lies on the eastern shore of the Lake of Constance [Bodensee] in the city of Bregenz, Austria.
Invited speakers thus far include: J. Campisi, USA; C. Barnes, USA; M. Gallagher, USA; D. Gems, UK; K. Gordon, USA; M. Lane, USA; F. Lezoualc'h, France; B. Lockhart, France; B. Pakkenberg, Denmark; G. Paolisso, Italy; M. Racchi, Italy; M. Rose, USA; D. Skene, UK; J. Syka, Czech Republic; R. Verwer ,The Netherlands; G. Wick, Austria; A. Wirz-Justice, Switzerland; and J.

15. On September 22-23, 2000 (Fri-Sat), Caleb E. Finch and Robert E. Ricklefs will convene a Symposium on Organisms with Slow Aging (SOSA) at the Andrus Gerontology Center, University of Southern California in Los Angles CA. SOSA will critically examine emerging evidence that some multi-cellular organisms have evolved very slow rates of aging with anti-aging mechanisms that are pertinent to human aging processes. Examples from long-lived vertebrates, invertebrates, and vascular plants show a range of life spans, which overlap with, or exceed, those of humans. The complex biology of long-life spans will be discussed in terms of evolutionary theory. Speakers will identify sourcesof data and availability of biological specimens to stimulate research and to attract new researchers and trainees. The program includes a volunteer poster session. Information on the Preliminary Program, Registration, and local hotels is given at www.usc.edu/dept/gero/CBPH/SOSA
