Fostering geroscience by delineating the biology of aging to identify novel means to target this process to improve aging health.
Since 1995, the San Antonio Nathan Shock Center has been providing core services to meet the current needs of the geroscience community. Directed by leaders and experts in aging research, our cores offer service, expertise, and education in biology of aging and the development of transformative approaches to better understand how to improve health and longevity.
We provide leadership in research strategies to advance aging biology. We accelerate transformative research in aging and foster and promote career development of investigators in aging biology. We serve as a resource and partner to all interested in understanding and targeting aging.
This center is supported by the National Institute on Aging through award number P30 AG013319.
