Ageing and brain research networks in Norway

Year: 2024
Type: article
Abstract: The global population is ageing rapidly with over 1.6 billion people forecast to be over 65 by 2050. While this ‘crisis of ageing' builds, medical research is rushing to prepare to meet the expected increase in the number of patients, especially those with dementia, including Alzheimer's disease. With the growth of the digital world, sharing of information and resources has come into focus as one way to help meet the crisis through creating positive collaborative working environments. In Norway, particularly two networks on ageing research have grown through the need for connectivity and collaboration, NO-Age and NO-AD. Their growth, and the growth of international collaborative environments, will help researchers seek for the keys to longer, healthier lives for older people around the world.
