The establishment of the Vera and John Family Center for Metabolic Biology was celebrated at the International Board, honoring Vera and Dr. John Schwartz of Pacific Palisades, California. The new center, headed by Prof. Asaph Aharoni will strengthen the Institute's ability to identify and monitor metabolites, and advance diagnostics, treatment, and new strategies for disease prevention. "Vera and John's support will make available a whole new set of research tools that will put Institute scientists at the forefront of metabolic studies worldwide," said Prof. Aharoni.
