Professional Development Resources Releases New CE Course on Biology of Aging

 
JACKSONVILLE, Fla. - Aug. 22, 2014 - PRLog -- Professional Development Resources, a nationally accredited provider of online continuing education courses for psychologists, counselors, social workers, occupational therapists, marriage and family therapists, and registered dietitians, has released a new 2-hour online course: Biology of Aging: Research Today for a Healthier Tomorrow (https://www.pdresources.org/course/index/6/1204/Biology-of-Aging-Research-Today-for-a-Healthier-Tomorrow).

What is aging? Can we live long and live well—and are they the same thing? Is aging in our genes? How does our metabolism relate to aging? Can your immune system still defend you as you age? Since the National Institute on Aging was established in 1974, scientists asking just such questions have learned a great deal about the processes associated with the biology of aging. Technology today supports research that years ago would have seemed possible only in a science fiction novel.

Biology of Aging: Research Today for a Healthier Tomorrow (https://www.pdresources.org/course/index/6/1204/Biology-o...) introduces some key areas of research into the biology of aging. Each area is a part of a larger field of scientific inquiry. You can look at each topic individually, or you can step back to see how they fit together, interwoven to help us better understand aging processes. Research on aging is dynamic, constantly evolving based on new discoveries, and so this course also looks ahead to the future, as today’s research provides the strongest hints of things to come.
