We’re excited to announce that Sanford-Burnham’s Sheila Collins, PhD, professor in the Metabolic Disease Program, will be participating in the Enzian Theater’s “Science on Screen” event on January 24 in Orlando (Maitland), Fla. Dr. Collins will discuss her work studying metabolic disease and how far we’ve come in finding treatments for diabetes and its complications. After her 15-minute talk, the audience will watch the movie “Steel Magnolias,” featuring Julia Roberts, Sally Field, and Dolly Parton. After the movie, attendees will have the opportunity to ask questions, either related to diabetes in the movie or the topic of metabolic disease as a whole.

What: Science on Screen “Steel Magnolias” Where: Enzian Theater, 1300 South Orlando Avenue, Maitland, Fla. When: Saturday, January 24, 11 a.m. ET Tickets: Tickets can be purchase on the Enzian Theater’s website or at the theater on the day of the event.

We look forward to seeing you on January 24!
