By 2050 over 27% of the UK population will be aged 65 or over. People are living longer but also living longer with chronic diseases such as diabetes and its complications.

Our ageing population will make major demands on health services in the future. Cranfield works to address such health challenges. Our aim is to translate medical innovation into practical, beneficial healthcare solutions; resulting in an improved quality of life for older individuals.
