UARC invites you to join us on Wednesday, 18 June, 1pm - 2pm in RES Hub (CB02.05.250) for our inaugural seminar in the UARC Research Seminar Series for 2025.

At this inaugural seminar, we will first hear from UARC’s Co-Directors, Professor David Brown and Professor Deb Parker, who will provide you with an update on where UARC is at, where we are hearing and how we envisage building greater collaboration to grow our vibrant UARC community and deepen our research impact.

We are then delighted to have UARC’s Innovation & Design Theme Co-lead, Professor Phillippa Carnemolla, deliver her presentation on Delivering Sustainable Support at Home – housing readiness and community care.

Whether you're a researcher, academic, student, practitioner, or curious about ageing-related work, these seminars are designed to inspire and empower. We’d love to see you there!

Fruit, tea and coffee will be provided, come a few minutes early to plate up and settle in.
