Colorado State University is a key partner in long-term project, which tracks dogs across their lifetimes to study how environment, genetics, and lifestyle influence aging.

Findings suggest that aging is not driven by genetics alone, but is shaped by a combination of biological and environmental factors. Because dogs share many aspects of the human environment, this research provides valuable insight into the processes of aging and potential strategies to promote healthy aging across species.

CSU research featured on 60 Minutes 🐏

The CBS newsmagazine 60 Minutes recently highlighted Colorado State University’s groundbreaking research on dementia in dogs, offering new insight into neurodegenerative diseases in both animals and humans.

By studying cognitive decline in dogs, researchers are uncovering pathways that could lead to better understanding, earlier detection, and potential treatments for conditions like dementia.

Did you know after about age 30, our bodies start to function less effectively?

Physical and cognitive changes start long before old age. Scientists study how metabolism, bones, arteries and sleep change over time to support interventions that promote healthspan.

Small lifestyle choices like exercise balanced nutrition and social connection support better aging outcomes!
