Do you want to live forever? What would it take to keep your body going and would it be worth it?

Join us for a quick-fire quiz, quite a good science demo, and Q&A with our panel of speakers.

Our panel of speakers consists of:

Professor Grant Tomkinson

Grant Tomkinson is a research professor and member of the Alliance for Research in Exercise, Nutrition and Activity (ARENA) at UniSA.

He is interested in how people’s physical fitness levels relate to their health. Physical fitness describes people's ability to perform physical activity, and it is important for good health and sporting success. He is particularly interested in whether people are more fit today than in the past.
