The McMaster Institute for Research on Aging and the Labarge Centre for Mobility in Aging will be hosting its annual MIRA & Labarge Research Day on Thursday, December 12, 2019 to showcase research in aging at McMaster University and to recognize the generous donations of Suzanne Labarge, McMaster’s former Chancellor.

The research day will be held at the McMaster Innovation Park, and will highlight interdisciplinary research in aging from across the university.

Participation in the networking and poster sessions is welcome and encouraged from researchers in aging from all disciplines. In addition, there will be a poster competition open to McMaster trainees of all levels (undergraduate and graduate students and postdoctoral fellows) from all faculties. A certificate and monetary award will be presented to the top poster in each academic category.

Research and trainee posters must be registered by December 1 at 12 p.m.
