The Surprising Science of Connectivity and Longevity

Presented by Osher Lifelong Learning Institute at Florida Atlantic University

Friendship, family, and social connection are more than sources of enjoyment—they play an important role in health, happiness, and longevity. This fascinating lecture explores why the quality of our relationships may matter more than quantity and how strong social bonds can support both emotional and physical well-being.

Participants will discover the psychology behind support, companionship, and attachment, along with research revealing the surprising ways relationships can influence life expectancy. The lecture will also offer practical strategies for maintaining meaningful connections and staying socially engaged as we age.

Join OLLI at FAU for an engaging and uplifting exploration of one of the most powerful predictors of health, happiness, and resilience across the lifespan.
