the Interdisciplinary Conference on Healthy Ageing, titled “Young in Spirit”
On August 13, 2024, the Interdisciplinary Conference on Healthy Ageing, titled “Young in Spirit,” was held at the Information and Library Center of the Medical University of Lodz. This conference was organized as part of the international project “BELLIS: Bringing Efficiency and Safety in Elderly Homes through Holistic Digital Technologies” (Cascade Grant Agreement No. 03-82-P/2023).
During the conference, participants had the opportunity to attend a lecture on “Healthy Aging, Disease Prevention, and Fall Prevention” delivered by Prof. Dr. hab. n. med. Tomasz Kostka. The session also featured contributions from Agnieszka Guligowska, Ph.D. in health sciences, Julia Zawierucha, a medical student, and Natalia Pawłuś, a physiotherapy graduate. In addition to these informative lectures, attendees were invited to participate in “Brain Training” workshops led by Ewa Świątek, M.A., a certified physiotherapist.
The “Young in Spirit” conference provided an invaluable platform not only to gain expert knowledge on healthy aging but also to connect with other seniors, share experiences, and foster new friendships.
We extend our heartfelt thanks to all participants for their attendance. Please take a moment to view the photo gallery from the event.
