The ARC Centre of Excellence in Population Ageing Research is proud to host the 2011 Emerging Researchers in Ageing Conference. This is the only national conference in Australia focusing exclusively on the work of higher degree research students undertaking research in ageing across a range of disciplines. Now in its tenth year, the conference presents a unique opportunity for higher degree research students to come together to share their research.
