Francesca Duncan, MD (@NUDuncanLab), discusses a recent Northwestern Medicine study on mice that has discovered a novel way to lengthen the #lifespan of the #ovaries. Dr. Duncan also provides #ThoughtLeadership on the importance of adapting treatment standards for #menopause. https://t.co/TsIR5uIm1v

Congratulations Emily Zaniker and team!

[Tomiris Atazhanova MD, MSc @AtazhanovaT]

Very grateful for this opportunity, or dream that came true I should say, to present at @ASRM_org
Very grateful for the guidance of my mentors and colleagues! I learned a lot this past year, and my leaning will never end!
Excited for the future findings of our study!

[NU Duncan Lab @NUDuncanLab]

Part of the Ovarian Shear Wave Elastography team attended the @ASRM_org meeting. Dr. Tomiris Atazhanova gave a talk on our work supported by @GCRLE1 on: "Assessment of human ovarian stiffness using Shear Wave Elastography (SWE) as a non-invasive biomarker of reproductive aging."

Francesca Duncan, PhD, associate professor of Obstetrics and Gynecology at Northwestern University Feinberg School of Medicine, joins @LisaDentSpeaks to discuss a recent @NUDuncanLab study on how #menopause can be delayed and how #OvarianFunction may be extended to support longer lives. https://t.co/pLfVscvvsA

[NM Obstetrics and Gynecology @NM_ObGyn]

Francesca E. Duncan, PhD, discusses a recent study she led that examined the potential to prevent #fibrosis of the #ovaries at a young age. @NUDuncanLab https://t.co/uxzb5KivdR

[NU Duncan Lab @NUDuncanLab]

Our recent work published in Geroscience demonstrating the value of modulating the ovarian microenvironment to promote reproductive longevity was featured on WGN TV Medical Watch! This research was led by @FarnersRiera when she was a postdoc in the lab.

"The average age of menopause has stayed constant over the years, but women are living decades longer than that because of health and medical advances." Francesca Duncan, MD, discusses recent Northwestern Medicine research that identified a new #treatment to extend #OvarianFunction in mice. Learn more: https://t.co/J5tZRHw1gW
