We have two new exciting speakers this year! 

Founding Director of the UC Davis Women's Cardiovascular Medicine Program, Professor Amparo Villablanca will talk to us about that all important organ – our hearts. As heart disease is the #1 killer of women, this presentation is extremely important. Professor Amparo Villablanca will present “Preventing Broken Hearts: Understanding and Treating Heart Disease in Women”.  

Do we think first or do we talk first? What about a baby: does the baby think about food or does it just cry?  The latest recipient of the College of Letters and Science Teaching Award, Professor Masoud Jasbi, addresses this fascinating subject. Jasbi’s area of focus is language arts ranging from linguistics and linguistic analysis to language learning in humans and machines. This lecture is titled “Language vs. Thought, Babies vs. Machines”. 

A lovely box lunch from Zia's Deli (sandwich, fruit salad and cookie) will be provided for each attendee and guests are welcome.
