The Centre for Healthy Ageing (CHA)

Welcome to our information centre on healthy ageing!

Here you can find answers to your questions on healthy ageing, general information about our research, as well as some interesting facts about how and why we age.

We combine basic research on the molecular mechanisms of ageing with clinical research to understand mechanisms of healthy ageing and to develop new treatments for age-related disease.

Our scientists work on topics ranging from genome stability and epigenetics to immunology, cancer, cardiovascular biology, neurobiology and mental health/resilience.

The funds will be used to establish a new doctoral training programme called CoAGE (“Cohorts for Healthy Ageing”).

The topic of the conference is "The Evil within: Regulation & Repair of Endogenous DNA Damage".

The award funds her research on how errors in paternal DNA repair with age may cause genetic disorders in offspring.
