All Humber faculty (full and part-time), staff, and students are invited to the ACER Community of Interest. 

The Community of Interest (CI) offers an informal, virtual platform for the Humber community to connect over their shared interest in topics related to aging. Highlights from ACER’s previous CI Meetings can be read on our website.

This virtual 'brown bag' lunch conversation revolves around subjects that matter to participants, such as articles they would like to discuss, upcoming events, potential research projects, and the sharing of research results. The community meets on the third Thursday of the month from 12 to 1 p.m.

On Thursday, November 21, 2024, the fourth-year Kinesiology students will be showcasing their final Knowledge Translation Projects as part of KIN*3060: Human Development and Aging. Students have developed a wide range of multi-media strategies to effectively communicate their scientific findings to a general audience. Faculty, staff and students from across the Guelph-Humber and Humber community are welcome. There will be 36 projects on display.

Here is just a sampling of what our students have been working on:

  1. Can physical activity treat ADHD symptoms in youth? 
  2. Does early sport specialization improve or hinder future elite sport performance? 
  3. Do mom and dad have different influences on children's physical activity?  
  4. Do brain games keep you young? 
  5. Is creatine an important supplement for older adults?

All student groups will display their projects simultaneously in an open 'expo' style. Please feel free to come by at any point during the showcase to interact with our students, ask questions etc.  All are welcome, so bring a friend too. 

We look forward to seeing you there!
