40% of students today will likely live to be 100 or more! Regius Professor Rose Anne Kenny has some good advice for younger people on how they can age well and stay connected.
TILDA, the Irish Longitudinal Study on Ageing, has officially marked 20 years of research into ageing! 10,000 older adults have now contributed to the study, sharing the details of their lives to deepen our understanding of ageing.
Two decades’ worth of insights have now influenced areas like falls prevention, cardiovascular health, vitamin D supplementation, caregiving, social participation and the design of age-friendly communities. The work of TILDA continues to shape the systems that will help us all to age well and to live healthy, connected and most of all, enjoyable lives.
