Ideas exchange

Exchanging questions, comments, suggestions and ideas to help us create community research and projects for you.

WELCOME

Public Forum

Welcome to our ideas exchange where you get to have your say. We recognise that the public have limited access to research conducted by university-based researchers. On the other hand researchers are often frustrated at the lack of authentic and meaningful ways to engage with the community and disseminate their findings outside the university. These two things undermine all of our efforts to improve healthy ageing. Here we wish to change that and hear directly from you.

Q&A

Put your questions and comments to our HACA research team

Dr Kathryn Broadhouse science communicator HACA
“Do you have a burning question about healthy ageing research or comments and suggestions for the HACA team. Leave your questions and comments for the HACA researchers to answer.”
Dr Kathryn Broadhouse
Science communicator for HACA
“The trouble with research is we rarely get to engage with the very people we are trying to help. HACA allows a two-way conversation between us and you and we would love to hear from you.”
