Upcoming ISL Events and Opportunities Message-ID: Dear ISL Affiliates, Happy New Year! As we begin Spring 2025, I want to extend my best wishes for a successful and fulfilling semester ahead. I am excited to share several upcoming opportunities and events that reflect our shared commitment to advancing aging research and engagement through the Institute for Successful Longevity. 1. ISL Planning Grant ? 2025-2026 Round The application period for the ISL Planning Grant will open on January 11, 2025, and close on March 23, 2025. More details can be found here. To support the preparation of your applications, we will host an information session and affiliate meeting on January 27 at 2 PM via Zoom (Join here). A calendar invitation has been sent to all affiliates?please check your inboxes for details. It would be a great opportunity for teaming as well. We will also record the meeting and share with you. 2. ISL Working Groups We are now scheduling regular meetings for the Advanced Technology, Basic Science, and Clinical Research working groups. In Fall 2024, each working group has met and discussed about creating online resources for training students, hosting events, writing collaborative papers. If you are still interested in joining one or more of these groups, please fill out the following form: Join ISL Working Groups. 3. Red Hills Village Health & Wellness Expo ISL will have a table at the Red Hills Village 2025 Health & Wellness Expo on Thursday, January 16, 2025. This is an excellent opportunity to recruit older adults for your studies or share information about your research. We will be more than happy to bring your flyers, recruitment materials, or published papers to the event. Please contact our admin assistant Nehja Guillaume (ng24k at fsu.edu) for further details. 4. ISL Brown Bag Series We have scheduled two exciting Brown Bag talks in the coming months: * 12 PM February 5: Dr. Hongyuan Cao (Both in person in Innovation Hub Pitch Room 112 or Zoom) * 12 PM March 5: Dr. Anne Barrett (Both in person in Innovation Hub Pitch Room 112 or Zoom) If you would like to present a talk in April, please let me know at your earliest convenience. 5. ISL Poster Day ? Save the Date! We are tentatively planning the ISL Poster Day for March 27, 2025, from 12 PM to 3 PM. More details will be sent soon, but please mark your calendars for this event showcasing the innovative research of our affiliates and students. 6. Opportunities for collaborative grants We are always excited to bring ISL affiliated together for collaborative grant opportunities. If you have promising funding opportunities to share, we would be more than happy to help with the teaming and development of the grants. Last fall, with the help of Office of Research Development, we submitted a letter of intent to the ARPA-H CATALYST program with many of you on the team. Even though we were not invited to submit the full proposal, it was a great experience learning about each other?s work and I?m hopeful it will lead to potential opportunities in the future. Thank you for your continued engagement and contributions to ISL. I look forward to working together on these exciting initiatives in the coming months. Please don?t hesitate to reach out if you have any questions or ideas to share. Wishing you a productive and rewarding start to the year!

We will be serving a light lunch for those attending in person. Title: "Heritability: a counterfactual perspective" Abstract: Nature versus nurture is fundamental in behavioral, biological, and medical sciences. Central to it is the concept of heritability, a quantity that measures how much genes contribute to complex human traits. The "missing heritability problem? is a great scientific puzzle identified by the Human Genome Project: there is a substantial gap between heritability estimates from population-based cohorts and those from twin data. Up to now, there is no widely accepted solution to this dilemma and our theoretical understanding of the problem is still limited. Inspired by the twin design, we define heritability by contrasting the factual value of the trait with its counterfactual value under the same environmental exposure and an ?independent draw? of genetic variants. This new notion offers a more nuanced understanding of the genetic and environmental contributions and their interactions. A particularly interesting feature is that, without strong untestable assumptions, we can only obtain bounds (but not precise estimates) of counterfactual heritability. We provide conditions for partial identification of this new notion with and without covariates in completely randomized experiments. In addition, we compare it with commonly used definitions of heritability in genetics through simulation studies. Our analysis sheds light on the important missing heritability problem. Bio: Hongyuan Cao is a professor of statistics at Florida State University. She got her PhD in statistics from UNC-Chapel Hill. Her research interests include causal inference, genetics, reinforcement learning, SMART trial, survival analysis and their applications in public health, medicine and social science. She is an elected fellow of American Statistical Association. To RSVP for in-person, use the link below.
