UCSF Aging, Metabolism, and Emotions Center

The Aging, Metabolism, and Emotions (AME) Center, based at the UCSF Center for Health and Community, conducts research on how people can thrive in both mind and body, especially when under severe adversity such as poverty, caregiving, work stress and depression. We focus on understanding optimal health, through interrelationships between biological aging, metabolism, and emotion regulation.
