Cafe Scientifique - Don't just sit there - do something! Movement in health and disease

Movement not only distinguishes us from plants, it is actually vital to our health and wellbeing. We will consider how movement improves mental and physical health. And, in MND Awareness month, how studies of muscle control are searching for new ways to treat neuromuscular diseases.

The University of Aberdeen's Cafe Scientifique Aberdeen City series takes place monthly in Tempo Cafe in Aberdeen's Bon Accord Centre. Sessions run from January through to October and are free to attend. No booking is required and places are allocated on a first-come basis. All the events are pitched at a very accessible level and give ample time for audience questions and discussion.

Parking is available at Harriet Street car park, AB10 1FR.
