School Visits
The NAARE program collaborated with UCI, UCSD, and UCLA to plan a campus visit to their respective campuses in March and April 2024. The NAARE scholars had the opportunity to explore each of the campuses and learn about the graduate programs offered.
NAARE Multimedia Curriculum Videos
More than 2500 students at CSUF watched NAARE multimedia curriculum in their classes. Understanding neurocognitive aging is critical to the health and well-being of our aging population and will greatly impact our world. Therefore, expanding our experience and knowledge of this field is imperative. Visit the NAARE curriculum page to learn more.
NAARE-ians Spotlight - Yonny Chavez
Our first NAARE-ian spotlight is Yonny Chavez from Cohort 1. Yonny's research experience is in biology and computational analysis with Drs. Cally Xiao, Archana McEligot and Arthur Toga on the Global Associated Alzheimer’s Network (GAAIN). His most valuable experience in the NAARE program is being able to create a network with fellow peers, PhD students, faculty, and researchers. “It was something that I instantly knew that I wanted to do," Yonny comments. "The rest is history.”
