We sponsor a series of conferences to: 1) Foster the transfer of knowledge between community and academic partners; 2) Increase community understanding of the effects of unhealthy lifestyles on male reproductive epigenomics including effects on future generations; 3) Increase community involvement in dissemination of information; 4) Provide researchers with insights into community challenges & priorities; 5) Build bridges to optimize knowledge transfer.
We engage local schools and colleges using workshops on healthy lifestyle and reproductive health. Workshops will include how epigenetics are linked to risk of obesity and its complications in subsequent generations. Community-Academic members will develop workshops to train students to become proficient in educating others as part of our “train the trainer model”.
We promote a “Healthy Lifestyle - Heathy Sperm - Healthy Children” theme through engagement of students in classes, demonstrations and hands-on experiments in science training. This will be conducted through The Lundquist Institute Summer Fellowship Program. Our scientists explain gametes (sperm and eggs), fertilization, and genetic and epigenetic inheritance through “storytelling”.
