Who we are
The Research Centre for Gender, Health and Ageing is concerned with one of the most challenging contemporary issues – the ageing of our population and the health of men and women as they age. Through its research themes, members of the Centre are undertaking cutting edge research and development across a range of fields.
Led by its Director, Professor Julie Byles, the Centre researches individual health care and societal factors that affect men and women’s health and well-being as they age. The Centre also examines the ways in which communities and organisations respond to an ageing population.
