<p class="MsoNormal">Dear colleagues and friends,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I hope this message finds you well! I am writing to express my heartfelt gratitude for the warm welcome I have received following my appointment as the Interim Director of ISL. I am honored to take on this role and excited about the opportunity
to contribute further to our vibrant community. We believe that ISL will take a critical role for aging research at FSU, leveraging our track records of supporting interdisciplinary research. ISL stands at the forefront of groundbreaking research into aging,
serving as a vital hub for scholarly activities that aim to unlock the secrets of living well into advanced age. I envision ISL to continue its mission of supporting interdisciplinary teams that can both advance aging research and improve the quality of life
of our aging population. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I would like to extend my sincere thanks to Dr. Neil Charness for his kind introduction and to the Provost’s office for their support in this new capacity. It is a privilege to lead ISL that is so crucial to advancing the science and application
of longevity, and I am eager to build on the strong foundation that has been laid before me.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I am deeply appreciative of the support from each of you—my colleagues, our students/trainees, the advisory board, and our stakeholders in the community. Your dedication to the institute and its mission is what truly drives our success.
I look forward to collaborating with you all to continue our work towards innovative solutions that enhance the lives of individuals at all stages of life.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Thank you once again for your encouragement and confidence in my abilities. Please feel free to reach out to me with any ideas, concerns, or opportunities for collaboration that you believe could help further our mission.<o:p></o:p></p>
