Promoting and funding research into the biology of ageing so we can all live healthier, longer lives
The BSRA was formed as the ‘Club for Research on Ageing’ by Professor Vladimir Korenchevsky (1880-1959) at some point prior to 1939 and as thus has a valid claim to be the world’s oldest scientific society devoted to research into the biology of ageing.
In 2025, the BSRA is pleased to be hosting its 74th annual scientific meeting on The Biology of Ageing at Manchester Metropolitan University. The conference will take place between the 3rd and 5th September in the brand new Dalton Building, the new home for the Faculty of Science & Engineering.
Membership of the BSRA gives you an immediate link to the biogerontology research community in the UK. Included in your membership fee is a discounted rate of registration for our Annual Scientific Meetings and eligibility to apply for grants to support your work.
Your donation, whatever its size, will help us to maintain the vitality and sustainability of this key area of research. As a result, we will see advances in knowledge of the underlying ageing process as well as all-important improvements in quality of later life.
The AMRC is a membership organisation of the leading medical and health research charities in the UK.

Over the last months we have been working hard to clarify our Vision, expand our reach and focus our activities. Here are a few highlights from the report: BSRA membership is growing steadily, with targets to
The BSRA is committed to funding, supporting and disseminating high quality research into the biology of ageing. Support is available for active researchers with substantive posts at any UK institution or research institutes which are interested in the biology of ageing and who would normally be eligible for membership of the BSRA.
Your donation will help us continue our work to understand the biology of ageing and to develop knowledge that can support healthier ageing for all.
