Aging Research Centre (ARC) is a multidisciplinary center focused on aging research in which both the medical university Karolinska Institutet (KI) and Stockholm University (SU) are collaborating. The administration of the center is placed at the Division of Geriatric Epidemiology, Department of Neurotec, KI. The primary goals are to (a) carry out and support high-quality aging research from a medical, psychological and social perspective; (b) advance multidisciplinary efforts in research on aging; (c) offer graduate students a high-quality education in a stimulating environment; (d) foster collaboration with aging researchers in Sweden and abroad; (e) develop cross-links between available data sets; and (f) direct the acquired knowledge into interventions. ARC was established in the year 2000 and thanks to the initiative of The Swedish Council for Working Life and Social Research (FAS) that announced a call for applications to promote multidisciplinary centers focused on aging research. ARC was appointed a FAS-centre 2007.
