Network for Research on Aging in Latin America and the Caribbean (REALCE)

The UTMB Sealy Center on Aging is part of the Network for Research on Aging in Latin America and the Caribbean (REALCE, Red de Investigación del Envejecimiento en América Latina y el Caribe), which was formed to enhance all aspects of research about the social, economic, health, well-being and quality-of-life aspects of aging populations in Latin America and the Caribbean region. The network seeks to maximize regional research capacity through dissemination of research findings, ongoing studies, available databases, upcoming conferences and professional events and training opportunities. In addition, the network seeks to foster collaborations among researchers and to help coordinate regional conferences on relevant topics. Members of the REALCE include nationally recognized researchers from institutions located in Chile, Costa Rica, Puerto Rico, Mexico, Brazil, Cuba and the United States.
