Thank you for coming to our Website and for your interest in the HNRCA. If you are new to our Center, I invite you to read about our history, our impact and our structure here.

January 2013

We had another very exciting year of groundbreaking research in our labs, as well as growth, change, and expanded outreach in 2012. Nearly two years since the implementation of our strategic plan, we are on target in addressing our strategic priorities and meeting our goals.

We have a new HNRCA publication, our 2012 Annual Report, which is now available online and in print (limited print quantities). This year’s Annual Report features research from several investigators and we look forward to highlighting more labs in future editions.

Several important guests and events took place at the HNRCA in the past few months including Congressman McGovern (D-MA) and NIA Director Richard Hodes, plus a training conference for young physicians and trainees, and a new community outreach effort, “Talk and Taste.”

Again, each of these efforts have helped us meet our strategic priorities and I hope you will agree they represent excellent ways to share our knowledge here at the Center with the larger community and benefit from close interaction with national thought leaders.
