How to Live Forever

Despite the vast steps forward in the prevention of infectious disease, we all die of something. Contemplating his own mortality led Immunology Professor John Tregoning at Imperial College London to write his new book 'Live Forever?: A Curious Scientist’s Guide to Wellness, Ageing and Death'.

Join him to explore why we age, what we die of and what we can do to live longer, healthier lives, including some low-cost and easy approaches! After his talk, Professor Tregoning will be selling signed books outside the lecture theatre.
