Aging Biology Research Support 7 activities
- Developing Tools and Techniques for Measuring Age-Related ChangesThe foundation supports the development of tools and techniques specifically designed to measure age-related phenotypic changes.
- Establishing and Supporting Glenn Centers for Biology of Aging ResearchEstablishes and provides significant grants (e.g., $4,000,000) to specialized research centers, such as the Paul F. Glenn Center for Biology of Aging Research at the Salk Institute, to foster dedicated research environments focused on the biology of aging.
- Establishing and Supporting Glenn Centers for Biology of Aging ResearchThe foundation establishes and provides significant grants (e.g., $4,000,000) to support research at dedicated Glenn Centers for Biology of Aging Research, such as the one at the Salk Institute.
- Funding Research on the Biology of AgingAwards grants to individual researchers and institutions to support studies on the biological mechanisms of human aging, aiming to develop interventions that extend healthspan alongside lifespan. This includes specific research areas such as neuronal glycolysis, thymic involution, senescence-associated inflammation, estradiol-mediated gene programs, hematopoietic stem cell aging, extreme longevity, single-cell gene expression, macrophage niches, protein redox regulation, methionine metabolism, skeletal muscle stem cell health, G-quadruplex RNA in astrocytes, autophagy genes, and epigenetic reprogramming.
- Funding Research on the Biology of AgingThe foundation funds research into the biological mechanisms of human aging, aiming to develop interventions that extend healthspan alongside lifespan. This includes awarding grants to individual researchers at various universities for specific projects related to aging.
- Organizing and Supporting Scientific Conferences and Educational OpportunitiesSupports and organizes conferences, workshops, symposia, and other educational opportunities for scientists to share and discuss research related to the biology of aging, including the annual Glenn Workshop on the Biology of Aging, the Paul F. Glenn/AFAR Conference on the Biology of Aging, and the Annual AFAR Grantee Conference.
