We’re thrilled to announce that the SysAge Project has officially launched with our recent kick-off meeting! This significant first step took place in Tartu, where SysAge project partners from University of Tartu, University of Copenhagen and Institut Pasteur, as well as members of the Scientific Advisory Board (SAB) gathered in person and online to lay the groundwork for the project ahead.
What is the SysAge Project?
SysAge is part of the Horizon Europe Twinning initiative, a program dedicated to enhancing scientific collaboration and knowledge-sharing across Europe. The SysAge project aims to deepen understanding of systems immunology—a field focused on studying immune responses as an interconnected system—and how it impacts healthy ageing. By expanding knowledge in this area, the goal is to contribute to advancements that support healthier ageing processes, ultimately benefiting people across Europe.
Highlights from Our Kick-Off Meeting
Our kick-off meeting served as an platform for aligning our shared vision, goals, and strategies for the next 3 years. We had discussions that spanned a range of critical topics like:
- Reviewing the work packages that will guide our research and communication efforts.
- Establishing clear milestones and goals for each project phase.
- Sharing current research progress and initial findings
This meeting highlighted the importance of our collaboration, as each team shared valuable insights and expertise unique to them. Moving forward, we’re excited to work closely with our partners to make meaningful progress in the research that lies ahead.
Stay tuned for updates on our progress, insights from our research, and highlights from the lab as we work to make a meaningful impact on healthy ageing.
Big thanks to our dedicated team and the support of the Horizon Europe Twinning program for making this initiative possible. Together, we’re working toward a healthier future for all.
