Through the Ages

Change is a natural part of the journey through life. As time passes, we all change physically, mentally, and emotionally. As these changes take place, our health concerns and practices change as well. Each phase of life presents unique challenges and opportunities related to health. At the University of Minnesota, researchers are constantly discovering new ways to improve the journey.

The 28th session of Mini Medical School, “Through the Ages,” will focus on health issues throughout life, from pregnancy and infancy to regenerative medicine and long-term care. Join us as health professionals and researchers from the University of Minnesota guide us through health topics that apply to you and loved ones of all ages.

When: Mondays, February 4 - March 4, 2013, 6-8:30 p.m.; Experiential activities: 5-6 p.m.
