Bites & Insights: Canada Is Aging and Diversifying — The Future of Healthy

Bites & Insights is a community talk series offering practical and evidence-based strategies to support healthy, engaged living. What can a decade of Canadian research tell us about living well as we age? MIRA scientific director Parminder Raina will share insights on the future of aging in Canada, drawing on his research in the epidemiology of aging and findings from the Canadian Longitudinal Study on Aging (CLSA), a national research platform that follows more than 50,000 Canadians as they age. Through this research, Raina will explore the factors that support healthy aging and what we are learning about living longer, healthier lives. About the Bites & Insights Series As we age, many of us want to know what we can do to stay healthy and live well. However, with an overwhelming amount of information available, it can be challenging to determine where to focus our efforts to achieve the greatest impact on our health and well-being. Join researchers and experts from the McMaster Institute for Research on Aging (MIRA) for Bites & Insights, a community talk series designed to share practical, evidence-based ways to stay healthy and engaged in the activities you enjoy as you age. Each session includes time for audience questions and open discussion. Light refreshments will be provided. Hosted in partnership with the McMaster University Retirees Association. This project is funded in part by the Government of Canada's New Horizons for Seniors Program.
