Institute of Healthy Ageing (IHA)

World class centre of excellence for research on the biology of ageing and ageing-related diseases

The aim of research at the IHA is to discover the biological mechanisms of ageing to help us understand the causes of age-related diseases and improve human health at older ages.

Because human ageing is so very complex, our main approach is to discover the mechanisms of ageing first in simple, experimentally tractable organisms.

Understanding the biology of ageing is one of the most important challenges in biomedical research today.
