The Alliance for Healthy Aging presents:

Lunch or Drinks with the Experts

How They Learned to Stop Worrying and Love Academia 
- An informal chat between trainees and leaders in the field

We are pleased to present the second session of The Alliance for Healthy Aging’s new series of Lunch with the Experts’ talks. Where every second Wednesday of the month, Trainees, Graduate Students, and Post-Docs can meet Faculty members for an informal discussion on science, career paths and anything exciting.

Guests will give a short talk on how they got to where they are, followed by an audience discussion and finishing with where they think the field is heading or what the ‘Next Big Thing’ is.

On 9th of December we are pleased to present:
