Egypt (1916 birth cohort study)

The Egypt (1916) birth cohort study is a long-term research project following people born in 1916 in Egypt to understand how early-life conditions influence health and aging. Researchers track these individuals' health, lifestyle, and socioeconomic factors over decades, providing valuable insights into how early circumstances impact diseases, mortality, and overall well-being later in life. This study helps identify critical periods for intervention, shaping public health policies and improving understanding of aging processes within specific populations.
