Past Events
2023 CALERIETM Workshop: April 16-17 2023, Scottsdale, Arizona
Early Career Investigators: CALERIETM Scholars:
Scholars received travel funds to attend the CALERIETM Workshop April 16-17, 2023 in Scottsdale, Arizona. This Workshop provided opportunities for Scholars to receive mentoring from senior investigators, to learn about pilot funding opportunities, and to learn about the application process for requesting use of CALERIE trial data and biological samples. Scholars are listed below.
- Jayanta Das, NIH
- Elisa Enriquez Hesles, Virginia
- Chisaka Kuehnemann, Tufts
- Jiantao Ma, Tufts
- Justine Mucinski, Advent Health
- Murad Hekmat Taani, UWM
- Andres Trevino-Alvarez, NIH

2019 Third Annual CALERIETM Workshop: May 10, 2019, Alexandria, VA
The overall CALERIETM Research Network goal is to generate interest in CALERIETM-based ancillary studies by demonstrating the wealth and accessibility of CALERIETM data and samples. The agenda was designed around developing Working Group plans with a goal of creating funding proposals for Workshop participants: working singly or in groups, for Network pilot funding, or going for the R01-level grant.
Working Group Topics:
- miRNA, epigenetics, and DNA Methylation
- Circadian Rhythm
- Behavioral interventions
- Metabolomics
Areas of Future Interest:
- Long-term follow-up studies
- Developing interactions with other intervention study biorepositories that can help us validate molecular findings discovered in CALERIETM and the converse
- Studies involving cross-species studies of the same CALERIETM-related questions in both human and animal studies
2018 CALERIETM CTS Database Webinar: "Behavioral Aspects of Sustained Calorie Restriction in Humans" July, 13 2018.
The CALERIETM trial employed intensive behavioral strategies to enhance CR adherence. The Computerized Tracking System (CTS) adherence strategies and data set was established to track adherence to CR and to guide individualized counseling sessions in the form of toolbox options. These features make the CALERIETM data sets a valuable research resource for investigating various hypotheses about the behavioral aspects of sustained CR intervention. Dr. Corby Martin led the webinar and provided information relevant to the NIA funding opportunities.
