A workshop on Healthspan research efforts will be held in Madison on Oct. 18. The workshop is meant to provide opportunities for faculty and research staff who work in the area to share their work and find synergies with other campus leaders as we examine health and wellbeing across the life course. Participants will engage in a campus-wide interdisciplinary discussion on aging across the lifespan, that includes social, medical and technological advances. The different sessions will include flash talks and facilitated discussions.

During the registration those attending will be asked to select the session or sessions that they plan to attend, to track expected attendance. Participants are strongly encouraged to choose multiple sessions. Those wishing to present a flash talk can do so in the link below. They will have 200 words to describe their current research, main interests, and future plans. The deadline to submit a flash talk is September 30. Those with accepted talks will be contacted shortly after that date.
