Gerontology Research Network
The UNCG Gerontology Research Network (GRN) is a cooperative group consisting of UNCG faculty and research staff formed in 2007 to facilitate and support transdisciplinary aging-related research across our campus. From inception, the following initial goals emerged for network cooperation:
- Facilitate transdisciplinary research working groups
- Seek funding for future endeavors of the UNCG Gerontology Research Network
- Provide a web presence and other communication, connecting and informing this network
- Bring national expertise on interdisciplinary research and training in the field of aging to the UNCG campus
- Sponsor an annual research symposium featuring UNCG faculty and students investigating the field of aging.
Please visit our NEWS page for the latest
and upcoming GRN events and accomplishments!
Although UNCG faculty and research staff form the core Gerontology Research Network (GRN), we encourage students, members of the UNCG community, and the public to
attend our quarterly GRN "Lunch and Learn" presentations advertised on this web site. To ensure you're aware of our quarterly presentations, provide your contact information (name, organization/affiliation, address, phone, e-mail) to Ann Stringfield acstring@uncg.edu.
