Science on Tap:

April 14th

Understanding Immunity

We know our immune system is complex, but we are not always aware of the chronic or acute problems that can arise when our immune system is overactive, compromised, or needs to be suppressed.  Join us to discuss diagnosis, awareness and treatment for autoimmune disorders ranging from types of arthritis to acute encephalitis.  Learn about immune suppressants and how regenerative medicine is working to reduce reliance on them. 

Our panelists will include:
Richard McFarland, MD, Phd. Chief Regulatory Officer at the Advanced Regenerative Manufacturing Institute (ARMI)
Richard Morse, MD, Pediatric Neurology, Dartmouth Health Children’s, Professor of Pediatrics and Neurology, Geisel School of Medicine
Todd Daugherty, MD New England Rheumatology & Osteoporosis.

Science on Tap  events are informal discussions with local scientists and experts on a particular topic. Science on Tap is an adult education program offered by the SEE Science Center.  These events are free and open to the public, but advanced sign up is appreciated.  Food and drink are available for purchase.
