Innovations in Healthy Aging

A profound shift in the U.S. population is bringing unprecedented changes in American life and what it means to be an older adult. Over the past decade, the number of older adults in the U.S. grew by a third to more than 54 million, including a 52% increase in Arizona’s older adult population. U.S. Census data show that by 2034, the number of Americans age 65 and older will for the first time outnumber those under 18. Experts at the University of Arizona Health Sciences are leading a university-wide, collaborative effort to navigate this massive population shift through a new strategic initiative, Innovations in Healthy Aging. Researchers, professors and leaders in diverse professions such as public health, nursing, pharmacy, medicine, geriatrics, engineering, law and architecture are building networks and developing solutions for people to live their best lives as they age.
