Thank you, Madam Chair, and thank you, witnesses, for your comments so far.

I want to get your perspectives on the CIHR's Institute of Aging. We were previously told that there has been a funding allocation of $122 million and that it's one of the strategic priorities of the CIHR.

Do you have any impressions of this Institute of Aging? Is it accessible for research? Is it helpful to have CIHR put a focus particularly on the theme of aging?
