Activities & Mission

We aim to increase knowledge of the processes, causes and effects of ageing, and means for counteracting these, both in human beings and in other organisms. We provide funding for researchers interested in studying the fundamental biological mechanisms of ageing and we seek to increase the capacity of the UK science and technology base to conduct this and related research over the medium term.
