David Sinclair: why we age and we don't have to

Concert Hall, QPAC

Updated: Mar 30, 2025

THIS EVENT IS NOW IN THE PAST. FOR MORE GREAT THINGS TO DO AND SEE IN AND AROUND BRISBANE, PLEASE HEAD TO OUR WHAT'S ON PAGE.

Join Professor David Sinclair, a leading genetics researcher at Harvard Medical School and author of Lifespan: Why We Age—and Why We Don’t Have To, as he delves into groundbreaking research that is pushing the limits of what we thought was possible at Concert Hall, QPAC on March 29.

As the years go by, we accumulate wisdom and experience, but growing older also brings a host of challenges. So should we simply accept the inevitability of aging, or should we treat it as an illness and pursue science-backed solutions?

At this fascinating discussion, you'll discover extraordinary advancements that suggest aging can be slowed, or even reversed.
