TILDA pilot
TILDA Pilot 1 - a longitudinal community based study which is cross-institutional. All participants (minimum 10,000) will be 55 years and over and will have detailed social, economic and health assessments at Wave 1 and 5 and 10 years later, Waves 2 and 3. Participants will be drawn randomly from across southern Ireland and, in addition to survey and physical examination, will have blood tests for routine analysis and genetic analysis - all of which will be anonymised according to standard criteria set out by the Medical Research Council. TILDA will mirror the methodology of the US Health and Retirement Survey and the English Longitudinal Study on Ageing.
