The Special K Club features our star scientists with K awards. This week, we will be discussing a variety of fascinating topics, including biochemical anti-aging targets in animal models, the use of mobile devices to predict outcomes in patients with cancer, and understanding the complex pathophysiology of the sensation of pain in pancreatitis. We are very excited to welcome Dr. Carissa Low, Dr. Andrey Parkhitko, and Dr. Jami Saloman for this installment of the Special K Club.
