Our goal: to advance innovative solutions for the health and well-being of older adults in urban environments. Join this dynamic network and help us shape a better future for everyone!

Scientific Advisory Board

Our experts on the Scientific Advisory Board have their sights firmly set on the future! Under the leadership of Prof. Dr. Dr. Thomas Schildhauer, they develop ideas and strategies by analyzing and evaluating the latest trends in the health and social services sectors. They are not only researchers but also valuable sounding boards for our cooperative members, the DUCAH team, and, last but not least, the Board of Directors.

The Advisory Board consists of a diverse group of experts who bring in-depth knowledge from a wide range of disciplines. They provide valuable recommendations for future research projects and support the scientific evaluation of results.
