Research Mission
Advancing research on ageing, health and social change
The SHARE BERLIN Institute (SBI) advances research on ageing, health and social change across Europe. Our work develops new survey methods, studies health and prevention in later life, and analyses the inequalities that shape people’s life courses.
Methodological and Measurement Innovations in Longitudinal Panel Research
We develop new data collection methods to keep longitudinal surveys reliable and representative as society changes.
Health Promotion and Disease Prevention in an Ageing World
We study how lifestyle, social networks and health systems shape health trajectories and identify which policies extend healthy life years.
Inequality and the Life Course
Ageing affects people differently. We examine how disadvantages accumulate over lifetimes and generations, and which policies can reduce these gaps.
