Network - Organising a SPARC Meeting

Would you be interested in hosting a workshop or meeting?

Then please contact the SPARC secretariat. We would be very pleased to discuss this with you.

The secretariat has a great deal of experience of organising different types of workshop and conferences and is keen to work with hosts to ensure the efficient and seamless running of events whilst minimising the impact on the hosts. We are particualrly keen to run workshops which showcase the findings from recently completed SPARC projects.

The SPARC Story

Welcome to SPARC and KT-EQUAL: Knowledge Transfer for Extending Quality Life

SPARC brings together researchers, practitioners and policy makers in ageing. It specialises in communicating the latest design, engineering and biological ageing-related research to all stakeholders, making the case about the benefits for an ageing population of scientific research, and it encourages new blood into ageing research. Although funding for SPARC ended in December 2008, SPARC is continuing to function from the University of Reading within a new initiative - KT-EQUAL which commenced in January 2009. Soon KT-EQUAL will have its own website but for the time being news and information about SPARC and KT-EQUAL events are being handled by the SPARC website.
