,

The Association of Senior and Emeritus Faculty (ASEF) of the School of Medicine of the University of Pennsylvania has organized for the past seven years a program of seminars presented by senior or emeritus faculty on topics of their expertise which are diverse and transcend academic disciplines.

The topics represent an in-depth account of a particular practice or a controversial issue of broad interest to the senior and emeritus faculty.  The current series promises to provide a rewarding intellectual experience.  All are welcome to attend.

The titles, speakers, and dates of the seminars are:

Robotic Head and Neck Surgery from Concept to Clinical Application; Bert W. O’Malley, Jr., chair of the department of otorhinolaryngology; March 7

Sound Change in Philadelphia: New Light on an Old Problem; William Labov, professor of linguistics; April 11

Going Home to Glory: A Memoir of Life with Dwight D. Eisenhower, 1961-1969; David Eisenhower, director of the Institute for Public Service of the Annenberg School of Communications; April 27

Hearing Loss and Aging: New Methods of Diagnosis and Treatment; James Saunders, emeritus professor of otorhinolaryngology; May 5

The luncheon talks will be held at noon in the University Club. More information about these talks can be found at the ASEF website: www.med.upenn.edu/asef
