Aberdeen Birth Cohorts

The University has followed all of the children born in Aberdeen in 1921, 1936, and 1950-1956 as they grow and age. Collectively these groups are known as the ABERDEEN BIRTH COHORTS, and are a jewel in the crown of Scottish health research and have helped to advance our understanding of aging well. The Children of the 1950s study is a population-based resource for the study of biological and social influences on health across the life-course and between generations.

该大学对1921年、1936年以及1950至1956年间在阿伯丁出生的所有儿童进行了全程跟踪研究，观察其成长与老化过程。这些群体统称为阿伯丁出生队列，堪称苏格兰健康研究的瑰宝，并有助于深化我们对健康长寿的理解。‘五十年代儿童研究’是一项基于人群的宝贵资源，旨在探究生物和社会因素在生命历程中以及代际之间的健康影响。
