Molecular Metabolism
Please join us for a monthly NORC-journal club, “Molecular Metabolism”.  This journal club combines the interests of previous “mitochondria and metabolism” and “neuroendocrine” journal clubs, and aims to discuss cutting-edge research that advances our understanding of fundamental metabolic processes. We hope that bringing a diverse group of basic and clinical metabolic scientists together will facilitate new insights into the molecular mechanisms that underlie metabolic health and disease
• Organizer: Amy Keller & Kimberly Bruce
• Meetings: Fourth Thursday of every month at 4 pm
Contact: KIMBERLY.BRUCE@CUANSCHUTZ.EDU or AMY.KELLER@CUANSCHUTZ.EDU
