Centre for Elder Research

The Centre for Elder Research (CER) conducts leading edge research in the field of aging by examining innovative ways to enhance the well-being of older adults and the environments that support them. CER provides a collaborative environment for Sheridan’s faculty, staff and student teams to develop creative and interdisciplinary real-world solutions, working alongside older adults, industry partners and community organizations.

We’re an integral part of Generator at Sheridan, where people with diverse perspectives work together across disciplines and sectors to spark ideas and advance solutions that really matter.

We work closely with organizations to provide an innovative approach that is relevant to their current challenges and future opportunities.

Our team

At the Centre for Elder Research, we put our motto, from Lab to Life® into practice every day. This is possible only because of the many highly motivated and qualified members of our team, the dedicated members of our Advisory Board and our broad network of partners and supporters.
