The E.coli superbug has hit Aston - but this one won't make you ill. It's a huge scientific model on display in the foyer of Aston's main building. The model is not only scientifically interesting, it is also very beautiful.

For some people, the thought of growing old is worrying. Here at Aston, we say that's the wrong way to think about ageing; the way to a long and fulfilling life is to maximise your healthy lifespan.

But how?

Last week, we held a showcase event to tell older people, community leaders, other academics, and business people how. For here at Aston University where I work, there's a great deal of stuff going on that can make a big difference.
