June Med School Café
“The Science of Repairing the Brain”

The University of South Alabama Physicians Group will host a Med School Café featuring two members of the USA College of Medicine faculty who will provide an update on Parkinson’s disease. The lecture will take place June 12, 2009, at 11:30 a.m., at the Gulf Coast Exploreum Science Center at 65 Government St. in downtown Mobile.

The presentation will be given by USA College of Medicine faculty members Dr. Jeffery Sosnowski, assistant professor of pathology, and Dr. Anthony L. Gard, professor of cell biology and neuroscience.

Their lecture will describe the anatomy and pathology of Parkinson’s disease and emphasize how pioneering treatments of this neurodegenerative disorder led to our current understanding of the regenerative potential of stem cells transplanted into the brain.
