MyAge is supported by a Steering Committee and External Advisory Committee
The primary responsibility of these Committees is to act as a ‘critical friend’ for the MyAge Management Group. They help to facilitate the delivery of the Roadmap and build collaborative teams, primed to address the big challenges in muscle resilience and ageing research through the life course.
The Committee members perform an important function in sharing information and advising the network. They comprise senior academics with diverse, related expertise, representatives of UK Research and Innovation, The Physiological Society and highly valued public contributors who use their real life, lived experience to guide MyAge activities.
