Healthy aging is more than what happens in later life—it starts before birth and is shaped by biology, lifestyle, and our social connections. Join us for an evening exploring the science of aging from unique perspectives: the role of the placenta before we are even born, how our social ties influence health and longevity, and a practical look at reducing falls and injuries through innovative programs for older adults. Our expert panel will share insights from their research and answer your questions about how science can help us age well, live well, and stay connected.

Expert Panel:

Dr Anya Arthurs – Future Making Fellow, Flinders Medical Centre / University of Adelaide

Dr Nadia Corsini – Senior Research Fellow, UniSA Clinical and Health Sciences

Dr Agathe Daria Jadczak – Postdoctoral Research Fellow, QEH, BHI, University of Adelaide

Please join us on Friday 26th of September at the Adelaide Irish Club (13-15 Carrington St, Adelaide). The event starts at 6:00 pm and will finish by approximately 7:30 pm. Doors will open at 5:30 pm. All drinks are to be purchased at the bar but guests are welcome to bring their own snacks/food. Attendance is free, but please register so we can advise the venue and set up the seating. We recommend arriving early to secure your preferred seating.

New to SciPub? Wondering what we are about?
The principal goal of SciPubAdelaide is to make science engaging and accessible to the public. Each panel consists of three experts who deliver 10-15 minute presentations on their area and then open up to questions from the audience via a moderator. Panellists are selected primarily on their ability to effectively communicate science in an engaging and non-technical manner. SciPubAdelaide is held in a pub so that scientists, aspiring scientists, and non-scientists can learn, discuss and think critically about hot topics in science.
