The ageing immune system

This is the final webinar in a three-part series on ageing. This episode will aim to help medical professionals understand changes in immune response with age. 

Covid-19 has shown how elderly individuals do not respond to immune challenge as robustly as the young. This webinar will explore the implications of immune-system senescence for clinical practice in hospital medicine and surgery, and in the community. The key topics to be covered are: 

• The causes and consequences of immune system ageing
• The potential for reversal of immune system ageing

Participants will have ample opportunity to ask questions. 

A CPD certificate with 1 CPD credit will be issued to those joining the webinar live as well as those who watch the recording afterwards. Certificates will be issued 7 days after the webinar to those who watch it live and after 30 days for those that watch the recording. 

*Registration for this webinar will close 2 hours prior to the start time. You will receive the webinar link 2 hours before the meeting. Late registrations will not be accepted.
