will bring together researchers, trainees, and stakeholders to provide a holistic and interdisciplinary perspective on aging.
The symposium is hosted by the Edwin S.H. Leong Centre for Healthy Aging in partnership with the Aging in Place Research Cluster, UBC Health, and the Centre for Technology Adoption for Aging in the North. The symposium will be in person on the UBC Vancouver campus.
This inaugural symposium will bring together researchers, trainees, and stakeholders across disciplines to provide a holistic and comprehensive perspective on aging. This interdisciplinary focus will enable reflection, discussion and community engagement on the biological, social, cultural and environmental determinants of healthy aging and strategies for prevention and early intervention to increase health span and add quality years to life.
The two-day event will feature oral presentations, a poster session, interactive panel discussions, and networking. To facilitate knowledge exchange and collaborations, the symposium will feature just one session at a time.
