Delighted to have contributed to this paper w/ @SeoyounKimPhD @calhalvorsen & Jessica Faul @umisr examining potential benefits of social participation on bio ageing.
Productive summer during my @Fulbright_Eire and further replication between @NICOLA_QUB & @hrsisr coming soon 👀 – at Belfast, Northern Ireland
