The Population Aging Research Center (PARC) was established in 1994 with a grant from the National Institute on Aging, which fosters research on the demography and economics of health and aging. PARC sponsors an annual pilot proposal competition, a weekly seminar series in conjunction with the Population Studies Center and an online working paper series. The overall research themes of PARC reflect the interests and expertise of our research associates. These include: Health, Disease, and Mortality Risks at Older Ages, Early-life Conditions and Older Adult Health, Global Aging, Health Disparities, and Domestic/International Perspectives on Well-Being at Older Ages.
