The Picture of Aging in Canada: What Does the Evidence Show?

Free public talk. McMaster professor, Dr. Parminder Raina discusses new research and societal implications of a major 20-year study that follows 50,000 older Canadians as they age. The Canadian population age profile is shifting higher, part of a global trend as people live longer and birthrates decline. What can be done to improve quality of life for longer? Dr. Raina, a professor in McMaster’s Dept. of Health Research Methods, Evidence and Impact, has led the Canadian Longitudinal Study on Aging since its outset in 2010. Everyone welcome.
