Because older adults represent the fastest growing segment of society, our universities must provide leadership, training, and scientific advances to meet their diverse needs. The mission of the Institute on Aging of the University of Wisconsin-Madison is to promote, through excellence in multidisciplinary research, education, and practice, the health and well-being of the rapidly-expanding aging population in our local community, state, and society at large. At the UW-Madison Institute on Aging, we are jointly focused on addressing the problems of aging, which include diseases and impairments (e.g., osteoporosis, dementia, Parkinsons, glaucoma, mobility problems) and the challenges of later life (e.g., widowhood, retirement, caregiving, relocation) as well as the potential of aging, which refers to the notable strengths, resources, and vitality of those in their 70s and beyond. Our goal is to understand the many factors (biological, psychological, social) that promote resilience as people age and to translate this knowledge to innovative educational and community intervention programs. As such, we see the present as a time of unprecedented opportunity to change the fundamental meaning of "old age." Highlighted Research Study:(click on logo below to visit MIDUS website) MIDUS is a national longitudinal study of over 7,000 Americans (aged 25 to 75) first interviewed in 1994/95. The purpose of the investigation is to understand how psychological, social, and biological factors work together to influence healthy as well as unhealthy aging. With support from the National Institute on Aging and active involvement from scientists throughout the U.S., MIDUS has become a leading forum for integrative, multidisciplinary studies of aging. photos by Jeff Miller "What's New" September 4 & 5, 2008 Aging in Wisconsin Alliant Energy Center September 16, 2008 20th Annual Colloquium on Aging September 18, 2008 Current Concepts in Nutrition & Aging Conference The Pyle Center Dynamic regulation of PGC-1a localization and turnover implicates mitochondrial adaptation in calorie restriction and the stress response Does Low Vitamin D Contribute to Age-Related Morbidity?
