Stress, Immunity, and Emotion Regulation in Aging (SIERA)
This purpose of the main SIERA Study is to link daily life - especially the amount and quality of different daily experiences - to biological changes that may be important for physical health, particularly immune health. By doing this study, we hope to understand what personal characteristics and experiences make older adults either vulnerable or resilient in terms of their physical and mental health and ability to tolerate stress.
