Abstract
The Dynamic Analyses to Optimise Ageing (DYNOPTA) project has harmonized and pooled nine epidemiological studies of human aging to examine pathways to compressing morbidity and optimizing healthy aging in the Australian population. Research using the DYNOPTA dataset has focused on four main outcomes that contribute to disease and disability burden among older adults: cognitive function, sensory function, mental health, and mobility or activity limitations.
