ABOUT HELSI

At the Healthy Lifespan Institute we're uniting over 180 world-class researchers spanning all 5 TUoS Faculties to tackle the global epidemic of multimorbidity – the presence of two or more age related chronic conditions – to help everyone live healthier, independent lives for longer and reduce the cost of care.

The Healthy Lifespan at The University of Sheffield is helping people live fulfilling, independent lives for longer by:

Understanding ageing as a lifelong process and its relationship with later life multimorbidity and frailty
Pioneering medical treatments to prevent multimorbidity and boost resilience in frail older adults
Developing policies and best practices to optimise the social, environmental and economic factors that influence how we age
Analysing the most effective combinations of social and behavioural change to promote healthy ageing
Co-producing with service users, patients and carers to devise solutions that work in real life settings
Training future generations of top quality researchers dedicated to transforming ageing
