2026 UK Ageing Research Funders’ Forum Early Career Researchers event

The UK Ageing Research Funders’ Forum (UKARFF) is pleased to announce its next Early Career Researcher (ECR) event, taking place on 23 November 2026 at the Health Foundation in Central London. Bringing together early-career researchers working across ageing-related fields, the event will offer a valuable opportunity to connect with peers and explore how research can help support people to age well. This event, supported by the Biotechnology and Biological Sciences Research Council (BBSRC), Economic and Social Research Council (ESRC), Health Foundation, Macular Society and Vivensa Foundation, will bring together ECRs working across the ageing field.

The programme will include a funders’ panel discussion, a keynote speaker, research talks and poster presentations, alongside dedicated opportunities for networking and discussion. View the full agenda and register your interest on the Eventbrite page.
