U.S.-Hong Kong 2018 Conference: "Aging Across Time and Contexts" (19-20 May 2018)



On May 19-20, 2018, the Department co-organized an international Conference on aging with the CUHK-NCKU Joint Centre for Positive Social Science and The Gerontological Society of America (GSA) at The Chinese University of Hong Kong. This Conference provided a differentiated perspective on individual constructions of old age and took an international format to investigate the phenomenon of aging by comparing individuals of different age groups or socioeconomic backgrounds. In the Conference, a publication workshop with the theme “How to Publish in GSA Journals” was conducted by Dr Laura Sands, GSA’s Editor-in-Chief of Innovation in Aging and Dr Rachel Pruchno, Editor-in-Chief of The Gerontologist. The Conference had attracted over 250 attendees worldwide from many countries such as China, U.S., Australia, Switzerland, Israel, Germany and Czech Republic.
