SUMMARY:Worming Our Way Through Time: How Animals Sense Time Within and Across Generations
DESCRIPTION:How do animals perceive time — both in the moment and across generations?\n\nResearch with the tiny worm C. elegans is offering surprising insights. With every brain cell and connection mapped\, and many genes and molecules shared with humans\, these transparent worms are a powerful tool for understanding how living beings sense and respond to time. \nMIT postdoctoral researcher Eugene Lee will share how training worms to remember specific timing patterns not only shapes their own behavior\, but also sends signals that influence the health and behavior of their offspring. \nThe talk will include live specimens of C. elegans\, allowing audiences to see firsthand how much can be learned by simply observing these remarkable creatures under a microscope. \nThis program is free with Museum admission. While walk-ins are welcome\, advance registration is recommended to reserve your spot. \nDecember 13\n3pm – 4pm\nFree with Museum admission.

SUMMARY:The Biology of Time: From Embryos to Aging Cells
DESCRIPTION:Leading biologists Ruth Lehmann and Siniša Hrvatin share their groundbreaking research on how living systems persevere\, pause\, and adapt across generations.\n\nLehmann’s lab investigates germ cells—the remarkable cells that make eggs and sperm\, carry our genetic material forward\, and resist the ravages of time. Their study reveals how these cells migrate\, transform\, and even evade aging and disease. \nHrvatin’s lab explores how animals slow the effects of time through daily torpor and hibernation. By studying how these natural suspended states protect against tissue damage\, disease\, and aging\, the team hopes to uncover insights that could one day help us influence the aging process itself. \nFollowing their short presentations\, Antonio Regalado\, senior editor for biomedicine at MIT Technology Review\, will moderate a lively discussion and audience Q&A on what these discoveries mean for the future of human health. \nA reception will follow the event. \nJanuary 21\n6pm – 8pm\n$15 General Admission\, $5 for MIT ID Holders

SUMMARY:11th Annual Rare Disease Day Event
DESCRIPTION:Rare Disease Day is an international event held in late February to raise awareness about the impact on patients and need for research.\n\n\n\nThe event will take place on Tuesday\, February 25\, 2026 from 1:30 – 5:00pm ET in the Merkin Building at the Broad Institute of MIT and Harvard (415 Main Street\, Cambridge\, MA 02142) and streamed online. Registration will begin at 1:00pm\, the speaking program will be held from 1:30 – 5:00pm in the Merkin Auditorium\, and a reception will follow from 5:00 – 6:00pm in the Broad Discovery Center. \nThis year\, the Broad Institute’s Ladders to Cures Scientific Accelerator in collaboration with The Termeer Institute are hosting the 11th Annual Rare Disease Day Event\, featuring opening remarks from Anna Greka and Belinda Termeer\, and a lineup of speakers from the rare disease space including Mandana Arbab\, Hilary Eaton\, Kasper Roet\, Juliana Gentile\, Dan Leonard\, and Allyson Berent. \nRare genetic diseases are collectively common: they affect 1 in 10 people in North America. While more than 8\,000 genes are known to drive these diseases\, fewer than 500 have an available treatment. The mismatch in these numbers underscores the urgent need to disrupt the status quo and develop new approaches to deliver precision cures at scale. \nThe Ladders to Cures Scientific Accelerator is committed to uncovering the genetic roots of rare diseases and to using those insights to develop new treatments. With projects spanning multiple disease areas\, Broad scientists are using genetics\, functional genomics\, computational biology\, and chemical biology to better understand and ultimately seek effective treatments for rare diseases. \nBuilding on the bold legacy of Henri Termeer\, who pioneered groundbreaking treatments for rare diseases\, The Termeer Institute is a nonprofit organization working to connect the world of healthcare innovators until every patient has a cure. \nIf you have any questions regarding the event or an accessibility request\, please reach out to Katie Liguori at kliguori@broadinstitute.org.

SUMMARY:The Collective Cure: Upstream Solutions for Better Public Health
DESCRIPTION:Join the Museum of Science for a compelling conversation with Dr. Monica Wang\, award-winning public health researcher\, and educator celebrating the release of her new book\, The Collective Cure (Beacon Press)\, exploring how the spaces where we live\, work\, learn\, and connect shape our health long before we enter a clinic. \nDrawing from the powerful\, story-driven narrative at the heart of her book\, Dr. Wang illuminates the social and structural forces that influence well-being\, from income and neighborhood conditions to social connection and belonging. Through the lived experiences of three extraordinary women across the United States\, and through her own journey growing up as an Asian American bussing student and working mother\, she reveals how upstream factors create downstream health outcomes- and what we can do about it. \nIn conversation with Indira Lakshmanan\, award-winning journalist and editorial leader\, Dr. Wang will go beyond the pages of The Collective Cure (Beacon Press) to discuss actionable\, community-centered strategies for building healthier futures. With clarity\, urgency\, and optimism\, she will invite us to reimagine what becomes possible when we shift our focus from individual fixes to collective solutions. \nThis conversation is for anyone interested in what helps individuals and communities thrive\, build resilience\, and navigate the systems that shape our lives. Discover how evidence-based\, upstream approaches can transform public health- and how each of us can play a part in creating healthier communities from the ground up. \nFollowed by book signing. Copies of The Collective Cure (Beacon Press) for sale on-site.

SUMMARY:AI and the Future of Cancer Treatments
DESCRIPTION:Sophia Shalhout\, PhD\, is an Assistant Professor of Otolaryngology – Head and Neck Surgery at Harvard Medical School and a Principal Investigator at the Mike Toth Cancer Research Center at Mass Eye and Ear. Her groundbreaking research applies AI and big data analytics to complex biomedical data\, with the goal of advancing personalized medicine for high-risk cancer patients. \nDr. Shalhout’s work goes beyond improving individual treatment plans- she is also using AI to accelerate the discovery of new therapies that target some of the most challenging\, traditionally “undruggable” cancer proteins. By optimizing molecular interactions and drug-like properties\, her approach merges computational biology with lab-based validation\, opening doors to entirely new treatment options for deadly cancers. \nThrough presentation and conversation\, Dr. Shalhout will share how these powerful technologies are reshaping the landscape of cancer care- from precision medicine to faster\, smarter drug development. \nDon’t miss this opportunity to hear firsthand from one of the leading minds at the intersection of AI and oncology- where innovation meets impact.
