Doing the unthinkable: The deep cuts to the #CDC's workforce today are expected to decimate the Epidemic Intelligence Service, a program that has trained public health rapid responders for decades.

We were lucky to have Prof. Sarah Harper from www.ageing.ox.ac.uk/about setting the scene at the Scottish Intersystems meeting today, ranging from 1918 flu impact on life expectancy to senomodulators and the impact of diet on healthy aging. Certainly made the scale challenge clear.
