DESCRIPTION:_*The event takes place over two evenings - 28th and 29th Marc
 h 2018. Select one or both when you book._*\n\nChildren who are exposed to
  social and economic adversity in the early years of life show increased s
 usceptibility to chronic diseases of aging\, like heart disease\, when the
 y reach their 50's and 60's. These findings raise challenging but fascinat
 ing mechanistic questions: How does early adversity "get under the skin" i
 n a manner that is sufficiently persistent to affect vulnerability to dise
 ases that arise many decades later?\n\nThis symposium is a special opportu
 nity for detailed discussion with leading researchers and policymakers in 
 this field and we are delighted to invite you to attend. The event will be
  chaired by Professor Jonathan Mant\, Professor of Primary Care Research a
 nd Head\, Primary Care Unit\, University of Cambridge.\n\nFree event but "
