From the Founder
As a high schooler, I had constant access to information about new scientific advances. However, other members of our community lacked this level of exposure. I began to wonder whether this gap could be bridged through the creation of scientific discussion groups at retirement communities, run by passionate and inquisitive high school students.
​
With the rapid pace of scientific advances, the need to understand their societal impacts has become all the more imperative.
By bringing students to introduce these new topics to retirement communities, Ageless Science allows residents to develop greater understanding of changes in the world around them and enables students passionate about science to share their excitement.
​
When misinformation is prevalent and can so easily misguide the public, understanding the context and applications of scientific topics is an essential precursor to establishing sound public policy.
