The University Hospital Zurich Foundation supports pioneering projects for healthy ageing. At Switzerland’s public DO-HEALTH event on 23 November 2018, Managing Director Corinna Adler will present the Foundation’s activities at the Schauspielhaus Zurich. DO-HEALTH is the largest age study in Europe.
To extend healthy life expectancy, the University Hospital Zurich Foundation supports for example the research of Professor Heike Bischoff-Ferrari with private donations. The director of the Clinic for Geriatrics and the Center for Age and Mobility at the University Hospital Zurich (USZ) wants to find out how healthy nutrition and an active lifestyle affect the occurence of age-related chronic diseases such as cardiovascular diseases, cancer, osteoporosis, osteoarthritis, frailty and dementia. Her vision is to slow down aging. The gerontologist wants to add as many healthy and active years to life as possible.
Support this research so that you can enjoy your life with 70+ for a long time to come. Every donation counts.
