The NuBrain consortium addresses key knowledge gaps to better understand the impact of nutrition on brain health. By bringing together expertise in areas like human nutrition, neuroscience and public health NuBrain aims to produce a significant change in research on nutrition and brain ageing. We engage with industry and retailers, government, policy makers, charities and the public to ensure that research findings are relevant.

VOICE is a unique organisation, comprising a large network of citizens across the UK and internationally. Members contribute immense insights, experience, ideas and vision to identify unmet needs and opportunities, to drive innovation on ageing and improve health research.

These events are housed at The Catalyst building, home to the National Innovation Centre for Ageing.
