Innovations in Healthy Aging Lecture Series

Join us on October 19, 2022, for the next lecture "Aging and Social Justice" by Laura M. Howard, PhD, Professor of Practice at James E. Rogers College of Law, at the Health Sciences Innovation Building, 1670 E. Drachman St., Tucson, AZ 85721. The lecture will also be live streamed.

In this lecture, Laura M. Howard, PhD, will discuss the ethics of aging, addressing important philosophical questions surrounding age and 'ageism': What are the beliefs and concepts about time and aging that fuel negative attitudes and behaviors toward aging adults? What, if any, obligations should society have for taking care of an aging population? Is living longer living better? What are the moral considerations for using technology to extend the human life span by many, many years? 

This is a free public lecture. Complimentary parking will be available in lot 2012, adjacent to the Health Sciences Innovation Building.
