Mission

The Alliance for Aging Research is dedicated to accelerating the pace of scientific discoveries and their application to vastly improve the universal human experience of aging and health.

Values

Innovation:

We believe innovative health-related research is the most effective way to ensure a healthy life for older Americans and, as a result, produce a longevity dividend for the nation.

Leadership:

A trusted not-for-profit organization can communicate the legitimate ambitions of millions of Americans for a healthy and long life. The Alliance seeks to amplify that voice in order to strengthen public policies and the research enterprise.

 

Collaboration:

We stand ready to develop effective partnerships with those who share our scientific, educational, health and policy goals.

 

Commitment:

We remain true to our mission for healthy aging research, and we will educate Americans on the value of health care that is patient-centered, knowledge intense, and innovation-driven.

 

Integrity:

The Alliance will meet the highest possible standards to be accurate, objective, and ethically sound in all of its activities, communications, educational materials, and public statements.

 

Vision

America's science, innovation and public spirit have the potential to avert the social and fiscal chaos that might otherwise accompany a "silver tsunami" of age-related diseases and lost productivity. The Alliance for Aging Research seeks to realize this potential and establish "healthy aging research" as a priority for our country as a whole. The advances we seek will make 85 years for most people look and feel like 65 today.
