Why should you join this Medical Sciences Spring School Healthy Ageing?

Topics: Epidemiology & Public Health, Healthy Ageing across the life span, and Cells, molecules and genetics.  

 

1. At the end of the Spring School students should:

   • have gained insight in and recognize societal, medical and biological aspects of an ageing society.
   • have had 'hands-on' experience with Healthy Ageing-related research techniques in all three disciplines (societal, medical and biological).
   • be able to approach and solve a Healthy Ageing-related problem by combining all three disciplines (societal, medical and biological).
   • be able to apply knowledge obtained from papers and lectures to the presented Healthy Ageing-related problems.

   To reach these goals students should show rigour in their own discipline and openness and tolerance to other views and approaches.

2. The Medical Sciences Spring School will take place at very stimulating venues: the Allersmaborg (a manor near Groningen) and the University Medical Center Groningen.

3. A student committee will take care of a smashing social program.

4. Low participation fee.
