Contributing to the understanding of lifecourse influences on health in later life

About

It is my pleasure to welcome you to the Hertfordshire Cohort Study website. This internationally renowned cohort study has been active since the late 1980’s, during which time it has contributed to the understanding of lifecourse influences on health in later life. This website outlines the history of this unique study and highlights some of our key findings.

I would like to take this opportunity to whole-heartedly thank all of our participants for their involvement with our research over the years.
