Leibniz Institute for Age Research

The Leibniz Institute for Age Research is a leading research institution dedicated to understanding the biological mechanisms of aging and age-related diseases. The institute conducts cutting-edge research in molecular biology, genetics, and biochemistry to uncover the fundamental processes that drive aging. Researchers at the institute work on a wide range of topics, including cellular senescence, DNA damage and repair, stem cell biology, and the role of metabolism in aging. The institute also focuses on translational research, aiming to develop new therapeutic strategies to combat age-related diseases such as Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s, and cancer. With state-of-the-art facilities and a collaborative environment, the institute fosters innovation and scientific excellence. The institute is committed to training the next generation of scientists through various educational programs and workshops. It actively collaborates with other research institutions, universities, and industry partners worldwide to advance the field of age research. The institute’s findings are regularly published in high-impact scientific journals, contributing to the global knowledge base on aging. Public engagement and outreach are also key components of the institute’s mission, with initiatives designed to raise awareness about the importance of age research.
