LECTURES + EVENTS 2023
酒精造成之面部潮紅及其健康影響
由亞裔健康研究及教育中心與斯坦福醫療圖書館共同主辦
很多亞洲人在飲酒後會出現面部潮紅及心律加速的情況。世界上約有5.4億人飲酒後都會如此，相當於全球 8% 的人口都飽受這些症狀之苦。這種現象是由於先天的基因缺陷，而導致人體内缺乏一種名為乙醛去氫酶 (ALDH2) 的重要解酒酵素。很多人將喝酒後臉紅當作「健康」的象徵，但其實這是誤解：喝酒會臉紅，代表一種名為乙醛的危險致癌物正在體內累積。陳哲宏博士將在講座中解釋酒後臉紅的生物學原因，以及帶有酒後臉紅基因的人可能面對的健康問題。 陳博士將介紹新的飲酒量標準，以及他正在亞裔族群中大力推廣的 5 月 9 日「無酒日」。
陳哲宏博士 (Dr. Che-Hong Chen) 任教於斯坦福大學醫學院，是一位分子生物學及基因學家。陳博士專門研究乙醛毒性以及 ALDH 多基因家族在人體中所發揮的功能。有一類新型乙醛去氫酶調節劑的發現，就是奠基於陳博士的研究。這些小分子調節劑 (叫作Aldas) 為強效的酶活化劑，能活化東亞人種特有功能失調的變異 ALDH2，即造成酒精潮紅症 (酒精不耐症) 的元凶。陳哲宏博士在台灣創辦了名為台灣酒精不耐症衛教協會 (Taiwan Alcohol Intolerance Education Society，簡稱TAIES) 的非營利教育推廣組織。他是斯坦福亞裔健康研究及教育中心 (Stanford Center for Asian Health Research and Education，簡稱CARE) 的國家推廣部主任 (outreach country director)，主導推廣關於酒精不耐症的大眾健康教育、宣導過量飲酒可能造成的健康風險，以及預防台灣及東亞地區的飲酒相關癌症發生。

Breast Cancer: Genetics & Genomics
Alameda Black Breast Health Seminar Series
The third in an 11-part series by Dr. Candice Tompson, this discussion will be led by Dr. Allison W. Kurian M.D., M.Sc. & Director of Women’s Clinical Cancer Genetics Program at Stanford University School of Medicine.
The seminar will focus on:
-The difference between genetic mutations (genes within your DNA) and genomics (alterations of the tumor DNA).
-What to look for within your family to determine if you may be at higher risk of breast cancer.
Join us for the discussion!
