Judith Campisi Inaugural Symposium

On behalf of the Organizing Committee Jan Vijg, Lisa Ellerby, Yousin Suh, Birgit Schilling and in close collaboration with the Institute for Aging Research and the Department of Genetics, Albert Einstein College of Medicine, New York City, NY:

It is our honor to invite you to join the first Inaugural Symposium on Cellular Senescence dedicated to the remarkable legacy of internationally renowned scientist Judith Campisi, who passed away at the age of 75 on January 19, 2024. Judith Campisi, known affectionately as Judy, held key positions at the Buck Institute for Research on Aging and Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory. Her groundbreaking research in senescence and aging reshaped our comprehension of these phenomena. Particularly noteworthy was her shift from cancer to senescence research, which led to pivotal discoveries such as identifying the SA-β-Gal marker for senescent cells. The symposium will continue her legacy and is directed at understanding cell senescence and fate in aging and disease.  We anticipate your participation in this momentous event.
