Future of Ageing Research York 2026

The Future of Ageing Research York 2026 conference is a premier academic gathering designed to explore the shifting landscape of gerontological studies in the United Kingdom. As demographics change and the needs of an ageing population become increasingly complex, this event serves as a critical forum for scholars, practitioners, and policymakers to exchange ideas, findings, and best practices.

Set against the historic backdrop of York, this conference will delve into the multifaceted challenges and opportunities presented by global population ageing. Our programme is carefully curated to bridge the gap between theoretical research and real-world policy application. By bringing together a diverse array of stakeholders, we aim to foster interdisciplinary collaboration that can influence how we care for, empower, and integrate older adults into modern society.

The event structure includes keynote addresses from internationally recognized experts in the field of gerontology, panel discussions on current social policy, and breakout sessions dedicated to specific research methodologies. Participants will have the unique opportunity to present their own research during the poster sessions, allowing for peer-to-peer feedback and networking with leading academics.

Key themes for this year include digital literacy among the elderly, advancements in dementia care, the role of social isolation in urban environments, and the economic implications of longevity. Through a blend of rigorous academic inquiry and practical workshops, the conference seeks to provide attendees with actionable insights. Whether you are an early-career researcher looking for mentorship or a seasoned professional seeking to update your knowledge, the Future of Ageing Research York 2026 provides an inclusive and intellectual environment.
