Lifelong Health

Targeting the biggest health challenges across our lifespan
Lifelong Health

The Lifelong Health Theme aims to deliver multiple discovery-to-impact approaches to tackle the enormous health challenges posed by the chronic diseases that affect us as we age.

As SAHMRI's largest and most diverse theme, Lifelong Health aims to tackle chronic diseases through a multi-faceted approach.

The vision of Lifelong Health is to become an increasingly collaborative research powerhouse by tackling cohesive research questions across the theme. Chronic diseases are often considered individually, but that does not represent the 'real world' situation as they often co-exist with shared causes and risk factors. By leveraging Lifelong Health's expertise, we will tackle chronic diseases in a integrated fashion.
