Translational and Interventions

Investigators at the Barshop Institute are actively engaged in clinical research focused on identifying interventions to promote health with aging. In our on-site clinical research unit, we conduct federally-funded clinical trials of novel and re-purposed pharmacologic agents as well as lifestyle interventions in older adults. These are investigator-initiated studies and national multi-institutional clinical trials. Our work is informed by the ground breaking basic science research conducted in the biology of aging. With our team of clinician investigators and clinical research staff, we are able to rapidly translate these novel discoveries to the clinical research setting.
