Does your research explore how to support societies to respond and adapt to ageing populations? Are you interested in questions about how health inequalities interact with the challenges of ageing? Or how we can promote healthy ageing, where elderly people can actively participate in society?
The Healthier Futures Ageing theme, led by Dr Elaine Dewhurst, Prof Simon Harper and Dr Gindo Tampubolon, is bringing together knowledge and expertise from across The University of Manchester and beyond to promote healthy ageing to benefit individuals, communities and society.
