We have an increasing focus on the emerging topic of healthy ageing and you will find that some projects in this call are offered within the “Science of Healthy Ageing Research Programme” (SHARP). SHARP is a newly established research initiative between IMB, Johannes Gutenberg-University (JGU) and JGU’s University Medical Centre (UMC) to combine clinical and basic research to promote strategies towards healthy ageing, thereby further enforcing healthy ageing as a research focus in Mainz.
