Andrology Fellowship addressing male reproductive and sexual health to be based at SIU-SOM, SIU Healthcare, St John’s Hospital and Memorial Medical Center. The modern management of male reproductive and sexual health requires an in depth knowledge not only of surgery but of imaging, biopsy techniques, pathology, endocrinology, radiology and basic science. The proposed fellowship is designed to enhance the basic knowledge of the management of male sexual health and reproductive health acquired by a urology trainee particularly in the non-surgical disciplines. Completion of the fellowship. The

Dr. Andrzej Bartke, Director of SIU's Aging & Longevity Research Laboratory, has won several major research awards, including the Methuselah award for generating the world's oldest mouse. When he isn't lecturing around the world, he and his team of laboratory scientists work to gather research on the effects of growth hormones and caloric restriction on aging.

We are working on the genetic control of aging in mammals and on endocrine mechanisms responsible for the effects of longevity genes. We reported the first evidence that mutation of a single gene can significantly extend life span in a mammal (Brown-Borg et al. Nature 384:33, 1996). We have extensively characterized the phenotype of long-lived Ames dwarf (Prop1df) mice and identified several mechanisms that are likely to explain or contribute to delayed aging and greatly prolonged longevity of these animals. These mechanisms include reduced plasma levels of insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF-1)

SIU Emergency Medicine students, residents and faculty joined the Illinois College of Emergency Physicians for the 2nd Annual Advocacy Day. Dr. Mark Baker (PGY 1 EM Resident) greets Illinois Senator Sam McCann outside of the Senate chambers.
