The Institute for Health & Aging was established as an organized research unit of the University of California School of Nursing in 1985. The Institute's goals are to advance knowledge about health and aging through a multidisciplinary research program of basic, clinical, social, behavioral, and policy research; provide research training for scholars and health professionals; and serve the public interest by disseminating research findings widely, and by providing technical assistance to scholars, health care professionals, health organizations, foundations, policy makers, government, and the general public. Institute research examines disease prevention and health promotion in the aging population, the organization, financing, and delivery of health services, and the experience of aging and chronic illness across the life course.
