About this group
Join this group for the Q Visit to the National Innovation Centre Ageing in Newcastle on 26 April 2022. NICA is an organisation supported by an initial investment from UK Government and Newcastle University to help co-develop and bring to market products and services which create a world in which we all live better, for longer. They bring together cross-competence professionals and researchers, commercialisation experts, scientists, innovators, and technologists working closely together with the public to exchange knowledge. They also run VOICE, a large network of citizens across the UK and internationally. Members contribute immense insights, experience, ideas and vision to identify unmet needs and opportunities, drive innovation for ageing and improve health research.
This group is convened by Anjali Ramachandran
