British Society for Research on Ageing

Excited to see the new trustees join the board! Ghada Alsaleh @AlsalehAgingLab @UniofOxford Nik Rattray - @SIPBS_Strath Merlin Davis - @SENISCA1 Ian Sawyer - trustee of Sutton Coldfield @u3a_UK Stephen Morgan - health comms guru Everyone say hi👋 ➡️bsra.org.uk/welcoming-new-tr…

Catch ITV1's 'How to Stay Fit as you Age' last night? Besides Mr Motivator, you'll have also seen @Brads_science with some great messages around the importance of physical activity for healthy ageing. Can we get @MrMotivator to #BSRA2027 to lead a lecture hall workout🤔

What Can Fish Teach us About Ageing & Dementia? Join us for the final online public webinar of 2026 as @drjtcmurray42 of @SwanseaUni /Prifysgol Abertawe (and a BSRA trustee) dives deep (😉) into using fish to understand ageing biology. bsra.org.uk/events/2026-onli…

🎉 The BSRA has a new Chair! Bradley Elliott (@Brads_science) has been appointed to lead the Society. Former chair @dweinkove will remain as a Trustee focusing on policy and partnerships. Congratulations Bradley, and thank you David! 👏 bsra.org.uk/bradley-elliott-…

Hey @americanaging, something for your ECR members? jobs.ac.uk/job/DSV867/marsha…

Didn't get to attend the #BSRA2026 public lecture by @ProfValterLongo of @USC in person this year? Well, luckily we recorded it then ⬇️⬇️⬇️ youtu.be/u7WML-w_DmA

It's been a few days since #BSRA2026 and we're still buzzing. We've got tonnes of photos and videos that'll be trickling out for a while yet. What was your favourite part of this year's meeting?

Always great to host the @americanaging best ECR presentation as part of the BSRA-AGE longstanding relationship. Who will win the Korenchevsky Prize and represent the BSRA as our best ECR speaker at AGE 2027? Find out at prizegiving at the end of day 3!

Fun run? Fun run! What better way to start day 2 than with the 4th annual "Morgan" fun run, a gentle 5km around Oxford parks. Because exercise and healthy ageing right!? #bsra2026 #ageingresearch #healthyageing #geroscience

Annnnnddddd Day 1 is a wrap! ECR communication training, keynotes talks, some great science shared, and an engaging public lecture before @dweinkove hosted a Chairs Reception in the stunning dining hall at @KebleOxford. What was your favourite part of day 1? #BSRA2026

Good morning @KebleOxford! First time here? The main gates & Porters Lodge is on Parks Road, between University Park & the Natural History Museum.

The wait is almost over... By trains, planes, automobiles, and the classic oxford bicycle, people are descending on Oxford for the 75th annual scientific meeting. 🚂✈️🚗🚴 #BSRA2026

3 days! Coming from near or far and wondering what to pack? Prepare for some traditionally 'mixed' British weather. bbc.com/weather/2640729 #BSRA2026

5 days to go until #BSRA2026, our 75th annual meeting! What's one thing you're looking forward to this year?

🧬 How much of ageing is pre-programmed? At #BSRA2026, @colinselman1 (@UofGlasgow) will explore the genetic pathways that influence lifespan and help determine how we age. All part of the exploration of the biology of ageing at BSRA 2026 in Oxford! 🔗bsra.org.uk/events/75th-annu…

🎓 First conference? Don’t be shy! We collated some top tips for first timers to #BSRA2026. Introduce yourself, ask questions, visit the posters & get involved. And don’t forget terrible conference coffee ☕️ some of the best conversations happen there! bsra.org.uk/events/75th-annu…

10 days to go until #BSRA2026, our 75th annual meeting and the premier ageing biology meeting!! Who are you looking forward to seeing the most? 🗓️ 9–11 Sept 📍 Keble College, Oxford 🔗bsra.org.uk/events/75th-annu…
