The UC San Diego Center for Healthy Aging constantly strives to discover ground-breaking findings relating to healthy aging. Our research has been published in prestigious peer reviewed journals and quoted by popular media, including New York Times, U.S. News & World Report and the Huffington Post. One of our ongoing studies is the Successful AGing Evaluation (SAGE) which focuses on the impact of positive psychological traits, such as resilience and wisdom, in addition to biological factors, and their impact on healthy aging. In addition to research, we utilize public outreach using a variety of mediums, including direct work with the community, participation in events and conferences, distribution of free monthly newsletters, and hosting public lectures presented by renown physicians and scientists. Our lectures, also done monthly, are broadcast on UCSD-TV and have reached more than one billion views. Our mission is to apply our findings and research to helping our older generation age with grace and satisfaction, and ultimately, live a free and fulfilling life.
