A Promising Future: Local Stem Cell Research Holds Key to Longevity and Disease Prevention
May 15, 2024 12:10 PM
JangoBio is testing the regenerative power of stem cell technologies to restore hormone balance in humans. This technology provides a personalized medicine approach to increase healthy longevity while reducing the demand on our overburdened healthcare system. Dr. CRAIG ATWOOD will present a brief overview of how sex hormones regulate aging, and how the dysregulation of hormone balance at menopause in women, and andropause in men, leads to the development of age-related diseases. With this knowledge, he will explore the best strategies to restore hormone balance so that we can live to 150!

Can We Save the Monarch Butterfly?
May 22, 2024 12:10 PM
For almost 40 years, KAREN OBERHAUSER and her students have conducted research on several aspects of monarch butterfly ecology; this research depends on traditional lab and field techniques, as well as the contributions of a variety of audiences through participatory science. Karen will describe the amazing biology of migratory monarchs, how we can use data collected by scientists and public to understand what is driving monarch numbers, and what we can do with that information. Her take-home message will be how we can address species conservation—in our own gardens and beyond—in the face of climate and other human-driven changes. |

Jul 17, 2024
TOM FARLEY grew up in Madison and graduated from Georgetown University with a degree in Marketing. He began his career in banking and finance, living and working in the New York City area. From 1999 to 2012, he ran The Chris Farley Foundation, a nationally recognized non-profit dedicated to substance abuse prevention. Like his brother, Tom was successful in opening the “eyes and ears” of youth audiences through the powerful and effective use of humor. In 2008 he wrote “The Chris Farley Show”, a New York Time bestselling biography of his late brother, the actor and comedian Chris Farley. In his Rotary presentation, Tom will chronicle his lifelong journey with his brother, Chris. Touching on lessons learned from Chris and his struggles with addiction, Tom will begin by speaking about his brother’s addiction and the affects it had on his family, and specifically, himself. He will discuss his own journey in recovery and his work as an advocate for those with substance use disorders. Using humor, the family gift, Tom approaches these difficult topics with compassion, generosity, and honesty. |

Moments of Happiness: A Wisconsin Band Story: A Conversation with Doug Moe and Mike Leckrone
Oct 09, 2024 12:10 PM
DOUG MOE is a former editor of Madison Magazine and wrote a daily newspaper column in Madison for two decades and has published more than a dozen books. When MIKE LECKRONE retired as director of bands at the University of Wisconsin in 2019, he had served in that role for an astonishing fifty years. A brilliant showman, he became known for aerial stunts and sequined outfits. He created the Fifth Quarter celebration that follows all home football games, removed barriers for women to march in the band, and established regular appearances at Camp Randall by special-needs high school musicians. On October 9, our club will host a discussion of their new book, Moments of Happiness which details the stories behind the highlights and the unglamorous work that made Leckrone's accomplishments possible. It both cements his legend and offers unprecedented insights into a career that will never be equaled. |

Badger Honor Flight
Nov 06, 2024 12:10 PM
STEVEN BARTLETT is Director of Public Relations for Badger Honor Flight, an organization whose sole mission is to fly veterans to Washington DC to see the memorials built in their honor. The Honor Flight Network provides all amenities to the veterans, including all transportation, meals and lodging. Everything is free to the veterans because of how much they have sacrificed for this great country already. His presentation will cover the history of the Honor Flight program, both nationally and locally. He will also provide updates on its success which will include a brief video of one of the veterans’ trips. In addition, club member GARY PETERSON will share some highlights from his recent honor flight on November 2. |
