NIHR Webinar: Year of Birth Project – 17 June

Please join us for this webinar on Wednesday 17 June 2026, 16:00 – 17:00

.

The webinar will present initial findings from the NIHR Year of Birth project, describing ages of research participants in UK portfolio studies.

With input from the RDN Ageing leads, the discussion will have a focus on the inclusion of older adults in research. It will also cover recent and ongoing initiatives to increase the participation of older adults.

As the Year of Birth data has implications for all portfolio studies, the webinar is of relevance to everyone in the NIHR community, not just those with an older adult interest.
