MAILES Longitudinal male ageing study

MAILES Longitudinal male ageing study

The Men Androgen Inflammation Lifestyle Environment and Stress (MAILES) study is one of Australia's most comprehensive biomedical studies on male health and wellbeing with ageing. This study continues to improve our understanding of health trajectories of men over time, the risk factors for, and interrelatedness of, conditions commonly effecting men and using this knowledge to inform preventative health strategies, and to improve screening and early intervention, treatment approaches and outcomes.
