Excellent research requires excellent teams! We are happy to have such a team!
At MetAGE, we explore how interconnected metabolic processes shape health over time and how we can support healthy aging, together.

🔬 Meet Dr. Brigitte Pertschy – Key Researcher @uni-graz.at & Head of our Training Unit
She studies how ribosomes are built & how this process changes as we age.
💡 Recently awarded a €10M @erc.europa.eu Synergy Grant for the project 'snoOPERA'! Congrats!

👩🔬Meet our team: Dr. Martina Schweiger from @uni-graz.at studies how fat and metabolism shape health, aging & disease - from obesity to cachexia.
Having too much or too little fat affects us profoundly! Follow her research @schweigerlab.bsky.social

Good commnication is what truly matters - no matter if young or old, in our body or beyond.
What's your take on this?

Ever feel like your energy just doesn’t bounce back like it used to?
It’s not just age. It's your cells losing their metabolic flexibility.
Good news: we’re learning how to reverse it.
🔁 Join the conversation on healthy aging!

🎥 How does fat metabolism shape how we age?
ORF featured 'MetAGE' in a short TV clip on our research about aging and metabolism in cell models and patients.

🫀 New publication: Blocking fat breakdown - not just eating less - may better treat obesity-related heart failure (HFpEF).
Fat tissue might hold the key.
