Rose Anne Kenny has accolades through the roof, and for good reason: she is a best selling-author, distinguished professor and successful medical gerontologist. She is also the founding Principal Investigator of Ireland's largest adult population study on the experience of ageing in Ireland - The Irish LongituDinal study on Ageing (TILDA), now in its 12th year of data collection.

But perhaps her most important claim to fame is the positive impact her research is having on ageing populations, around Ireland and beyond. In this podcast, she gives us a glimpse of what we can actually do to improve our chances of aging in the most joyful and healthy way, and crucially why it is that these actions actually help us in the long run.
