Who We Are
The American Aging Association was launched on October 19, 1970 and organized by a group of distinguished medical doctors and scientists who wanted a specific organization dedicated to aging research. The Association is defined as a non-profit, tax-exempt national organization of lay and scientific members dedicated to:
- Promote biomedical aging studies directed towards increasing the functional life span of humans with one goal being to slow the aging process.
- Keep the public informed of the progress of aging research and of practical means of achieving a long and healthy life.
- Increase knowledge of biogerontology among physicians and others in the health fields
- Foster the scientific and professional career development of AGE trainees and scientific members. (added 2017)
The American Aging Association recognizes a crucial, compelling need to promote diversity in the aging research workforce. The American Aging Association is committed to fostering a diverse workforce in aging research, and to ensuring that people from all backgrounds can fully and productively participate in our field.
