Rose Anne Kenny

Weston Lecture Theatre
£7 - £12.50
This event has been cancelled. Ticket purchases will be refunded by the TicketSource box office. If you purchased your ticket with a credit for 2020, the credit has been restored to your code.
Doctor and researcher Professor Rose Anne Kenny explains why some of us live longer than others and what science can teach us about leading longer and healthier lives.
Kenny, founder investigator of the Irish Longitudinal study on Ageing, has carried out her own groundbreaking research into ageing. She reveals why some people have a lower biological age than chronological age, and the role played by food, genetics, sex, physical exercise, cold water, expectations, and friendships. And she explains why family, friends, laughter, and good sleep are so important.
Kenny is head of the Department of Medical Gerontology at Trinity College Dublin. She received a lifetime achievement award at the 2019 world congress in Kuala Lumpur for her research on ageing.
This event is part of the festival’s programme of Irish literature and culture.
