MCDB-IPQB Seminar Series - Lecture by Martin Picard

Explore the groundbreaking Brain-body Energy Conservation (BEC) model of aging, presented by Dr. Martin Picard. This innovative framework reveals how the brain mediates the organism’s energy economy as we age, responding to cellular damage, stressors, and energy demands. Learn about the energetic cost of cellular aging, how the brain perceives and reacts to hypermetabolism, and how stressors and interventions can modify aging trajectories.

Dr. Picard leads the Mitochondrial Psychobiology Group and co-directs the Columbia Science of Health program. Visit www.picardlab.org to learn more about his work.
