Central London, to be announced

This is a special workshop, one in a series to be organised by SPARC to promote the value of scientific ageing-related research and opportunities for further research. It has been designed especially to assist SPARC Award Holders and members of their teams to work with the media.

The number of places are very limited. We regret that places are not available for other members of the SPARc network.

There is no charge for attendance just an enthusiasm and interest in extending the quality of life of older people through informed user-focused research and its application.

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.
