Healthy Aging: It is with great pleasure that we have the opportunity to announce that Dr. Michael Turner will be taking on the role as Director of the Healthy Aging Research Academy (HARA). Dr. Turner is not only a natural fit for this position because his research focuses on the intersection of cardiovascular functioning, physical activity and aging, but also because of his commitment to faculty research development and mentoring. I am confident that with Dr. Turner’s leadership and with support from Dr. Julian Montoro Rodriguez (our new Director of Gerontology), HARA will development into a strong research organization within our College, the University and the community.
