How can HRC residents take advantage of research findings from the Institute for Aging Research? Can they participate in studies?
The Institute for Aging Research (IFAR) is the largest gerontological research facility located in an applied setting in the U.S. That means that research findings from IFAR studies can be directly translated to the benefit of our residents. Scientists at IFAR conduct rigorous medical and social studies, and are leading the way in developing a variety of strategies for maximizing individuals’ strength, vigor and physical well-being, as well as their cognitive and functional independence in late life. Because IFAR is located within the HRC facility, our residents are often the first beneficiaries of our research findings. In addition, many of our residents participate in studies as research subjects, enabling our experts to conduct clinical investigations and readily apply their findings to older patients.
