Research

U3AC's objects include the pursuit and publication of research both on general matters and into various aspects of ageing. The U3AC Council is clear that U3AC cannot, of itself, fund research. Neither can the Council initiate projects. Therefore a research programme will depend on U3AC members initiating, leading and participating in projects. This website can, however, be used to distribute information which may facilitate participation in research by its members and provide feedback on projects with a U3AC involvement. Follow the links below for further information:

U3AC Projects - Ongoing or proposed projects led by members who are seeking active collaborators
Request for volunteers - Ongoing external experimental projects (mostly Cambridge University) seeking volunteers to serve as subjects
Reports on U3A projects - where U3A members have made an active contribution
Reports on other projects - where U3A members acted as volunteer subjects
U3A members offering support - members offering to collaborate in a research project
