Café Scientifique with Dr Matthew Piper
Event details
As the population ages, is there anything we can do to reduce the symptoms of ageing? Can it be considered an illness, for which a cure can and will be sought? Join Dr Matthew Piper to explore current research, and discuss the options available in both the near and distant future.
Dr Matthew Piper is a Royal Society University Research Fellow at the Institute of Healthy Ageing, UCL. His research focuses on the effect of nutrition on health and the ageing process.
