A Multidisciplinary Approach to Promote Active and Healthy Ageing
Application deadline: February 28, 2025
The 12th edition of the Summer Institute on Ageing will focus on a multidisciplinary approach to promote active and healthy ageing. The Institute provides students and early-career researchers with a multidisciplinary and rigorous understanding of the ageing process, ranging from some basic notions of the medical and epidemiological literature to key concepts in the economics and sociology of ageing. A special focus will be given to the socioeconomic challenges related to the promotion of active and healthy ageing in the population, as well as the value of longitudinal surveys to guide the design of evidence-based strategies.
This edition of the Summer Institute will include two types of activities:
- A three-day summer school on “Multidisciplinary Perspectives in the Study of Ageing based on Longitudinal Surveys” with lectures, testimonials and hands-on sessions (June 9-11);
- A two-day workshop “Ageing, Health and Retirement” with presentations and discussions of scientific papers from leading experts in the fields (June 12-13).
Suitable for: PhD students, post-doc scholars and graduates in economics, statistics, social sciences and medicine, but also professionals active in the field of ageing.
The Program will admit a maximum of 40 participants. The minimum number is 12.
25 fee-waiver scholarships
are available in 2025
