A Theo Murphy Initiative (Australia) 

8 - 9 April 2019

South Australian Health and Medical Research Institute (SAHMRI), Adelaide

The 2019 Theo Murphy Australian Frontiers of Science-Redefining healthy ageing together aims to provide an opportunity for early- and mid-career researchers (EMCRs) based in Australia to showcase their research to peers, and form new collaborations. 

This two-day event will allow researchers from a variety of disciplines and sectors, with a focus on healthy ageing, to come together and present their current research and share ideas. The event seeks to further engage researchers with members of the public, not as research participants but as collaborators who can add a valuable insight in to the design and development of research projects.

EMCRs and students interested to attend must submit an abstract to present at the conference as part of the registration process. There are opportunities to submit an abstract for an oral presentation, a poster or a rapid-fire 5-minute presentation. 

Congratulations to the presentation prize winners!
