Dr. Peter M. Abadir is a geriatrician and translational researcher at Johns Hopkins University. He serves as the Principal Investigator of the Johns Hopkins Artificial Intelligence and Technology Collaboratory for Aging Research, where he leads interdisciplinary initiatives to advance innovations in aging and resilience science. His clinical focus includes frailty, cognitive decline, and age-related conditions, while his translational research bridges molecular biology, bioengineering, and geriatrics. Dr. Abadir is an Associate Professor in the Division of Geriatric Medicine and Gerontology at the Johns Hopkins School of Medicine and holds a joint appointment in Electrical and Computer Engineering at the Whiting School of Engineering. He also directs the Molecular Measurement Core of the Johns Hopkins Older Americans Independence Center and co-directs the Clinical Translation and Validation Core for the Artificial Intelligence and Technology Collaboratory. He currently serves as Chair of the MD Admissions Committee for the Johns Hopkins School of Medicine, overseeing the selection of the next generation of leaders in medicine. Additionally, Dr. Abadir is the Deputy Editor of the Journal of the American Geriatrics Society and serves on several other journal editorial boards. Among his research contributions, Dr. Abadir was among the first to describe the presence of a mitochondrial angiotensin system, providing new insights into cellular energy metabolism and aging. His pioneering work has also focused on biomarkers for frailty and cognitive decline, including circulating mitochondrial DNA and inflammation-related pathways. Notably, his research on the use tof topical angiotensin system blockers has introduced novel approaches to wound healing in aging populations. Dr. Abadir is a recipient of the Nathan Shock Scholar in Aging Award and the Frederick L. Brancati Excellence in Mentoring Award. Additionally, he has received the Johns Hopkins Institute for Excellence in Education Leadership and Mentorship Award and was inducted into the Johns Hopkins Distinguished Teaching Society, reflecting his outstanding contributions to mentorship and education. Dr. Abadir co-founded the Johns Hopkins Gerotech Incubator Program, which integrates medicine, engineering, and technology to develop solutions that enhance the health and independence of older adults.

Dr. Jee Bang cares for patients with disorders of cognition and movement, such as Huntington disease, progressive supranuclear palsy, corticobasal degeneration, multiple system atrophy, dementia with Lewy bodies, frontotemporal dementia, and Alzheimer disease.

A retired U.S. Air Force colonel and the recipient of numerous military service and achievement medals, Dr. Satin earned his medical degree at the F. Edward Hebert School of Medicine at the Uniformed Services University of the Health Sciences in Bethesda and completed a fellowship in maternal-fetal medicine at the University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center in Dallas.Before joining Johns Hopkins, Satin was a professor and chair of the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology at his medical school alma mater, where he received multiple Outstanding Clinical Teacher Awards and other accolades. He also served as an attending physician at both the National Naval Medical Center in Bethesda and Walter Reed Army Medical Center in Washington, D.C.He holds several national leadership positions, including president of the American Board of Obstetrics and Gynecology and member of the board of the directors of the Society for Maternal-Fetal Medicine. He has served as chair of the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists Committees on Practice Bulletins and Clinical Document Review. He has published many articles in obstetrics and maternal-fetal medicine journals and written numerous textbook chapters. Satin, who also conducts extensive research in labor stimulation, has led countless residents through simulation laboratories and directed simulation courses for the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists and the Society for Maternal-Fetal Medicine.
