What is the Aging Clinical Research Consortium?

The Aging Clinical Research Consortium (ACRC) is a component of the Institute for Clinical and Translational Science (ICTS) at Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis designed to increase engagement of special populations.

The aim of the ACRC is to provide infrastructure and support for faculty in several major areas: collaboration, study development, use of technology, and community research.

The ACRC is composed of a number of groups within the ICTS including the Friedman Center for Aging, and the Knight ADRC, as well as community organizations that are part of the Missouri Aging and Disability Research Network.
