Demystifying Medicine Series Begins 2025 Season

Prepare to be demystified in learning new advances in biology and their application to major human diseases. Now in its 23rd year, the 2025 Demystifying Medicine series kicks off on Jan. 7 when former NIAID Director Dr. Anthony Fauci discusses the perpetual challenge of emerging and re-emerging infectious diseases.

Lectures will be held virtually via NIH videocast most Tuesdays from Jan. 7 to May 27 from 3:00 to 5:00 p.m., ET. A special in-person event on Jan. 28 at Lipsett Amphitheatre will cover new discoveries from NIH’s Undiagnosed Diseases Program.

The lectures will include presentations on pathology, diagnosis and therapy in the context of major diseases and current research. Primarily directed toward doctoral students, clinicians and program managers, each session includes clinical and basic science components presented by NIH staff and invitees. All trainees, fellows and staff are welcome to participate.

Demystifying Medicine is co-hosted by Drs. Win Arias (CC) and Dan Kastner (NHGRI) and is co-sponsored by the Clinical Center, Office of Intramural Research, and the Foundation for Advanced Education in the Sciences (FAES).
