Key Focus Areas
Key Focus Areas
Key Focus Areas
01.
India-Specific Aging Research
Recognizing the limits of Western data, the center will focus on identifying aging biomarkers and trajectories unique to Indian populations.
02.
Developing Organ-Specific Aging Models
Research at CAR will examine how aging impacts various organs, aiming for a deeper understanding of the overall aging process.
03.
Exploring the Gut-Brain Connection
The center will investigate how the gut microbiome and the brain interact during aging, a topic of growing interest in the field of longevity.
04.
Integrative Research Approach
Aging is complex. CAR will combine biology, data science, and clinical research to understand it holistically.
05.
Collaborative Research Ecosystem
The center will bring together IISc researchers, clinicians, industry leaders, and policymakers to foster interdisciplinary innovation.
06.
Translating Research into Solutions
The goal is not just to understand aging but also to develop interventions and solutions that can improve the health and well-being of the elderly.
