UT Health San Antonio announced on Sept. 10 that its Sam and Ann Barshop Institute for Longevity and Aging Studies gained renewal of two highly competitive center grants awarded by the National Institute on Aging (NIA).
The Pepper and Shock grants, which total $11 million over the next five years, support basic research of the biology of aging and translation of discoveries into human application.
The renewals further cement the Barshop Institute as one of America’s premier centers of aging research.
