About the centre
The Centre for Resilience (CfR) is is based in the University of Westminster's School of Life Sciences and contains the groups related to Aging biology and age-related diseases, Community Health resilience and wellbeing and Pathobiology and Extracellular Vesicles. It is dedicated to understanding and addressing the complex and multifaceted challenges, adversities, and issues that society faces today. With a mission to explore resilience at all levels, from the cellular to the societal, the CfR has been involved in research and knowledge exchange with organisations and communities since its inception in 2013.
