State Funding
State research grants are research initiatives funded by the state of Rhineland-PalatinateThe CTH is involved in the following research initiative:
ReALity Innovation Fund
The research initiative ReALity (Resilience, Adaptation and Longevity) investigates how biological systems respond to internal and external hazards and develop resilience thereafter and how this restores the physiological balance and supports the longevity of the organism.
Research groups of the CTH are involved in projects of the 2nd funding period:
- Cell Instrinsic and Bone Marrow Niche Regulation of Stem Cell Rejuvenation (Prof. Wolfram Ruf)
- A Multi-Organ Approach to Investigate the Endothelium During Vascular and Neuronal Aging and Inflammation (Prof. Philip Wenzel)
Research groups of the CTH involved in projects of the 1st funding period:
- Development and Characterization of a Mouse Model of Immuno-aging (Prof. Wolfram Ruf)
- EpiHF – Understanding the Pathophysiology Related to Epigenetic Modifications in Heart Failure Syndrome (Prof. Philipp Wild)
- MORE – Molecular Mechanisms of Resilience (Prof. Christoph Reinhardt, Prof. Philipp Wild)
- ReALity HBBA – ReALizing Healthy Body and Brain Aging (Prof. Philipp Wild)

CHANCE
The Clinician Scientist Programme of the Centre for Healthy Aging (CHANCE) is a career development programme for (Advanced) Clinician Scientists funded by the state of Rhineland-Palatinate. Within this programme, clinician scientists are given the opportunity to work on independent research projects based on fundamental findings in ageing research, new translational questions in the field of healthy ageing, multimorbidity and regeneration therapies.Information about the Clinician Scientists funded by CHANCE and their research projects will be published soon.
Summary CHANCE:
- Titel: CHANCE - Clinician Scientist Programm des Center for Healthy Aging
- Partners: Institute for Molecular Biology (IMB) Mainz, University Medical Center Mainz
- Duration: 2023 - 2026
