In Euskal Herria, as in all of Europe, more and more people are older. This poses profound challenges for society, from demographics, economy, philosophy, health... We have asked neuroscience researchers, Ainhoa Alberro Garitano and David Otaegi Bichot, from the Biogipuzkoa Health Research Institute, and the doctor and clinical researcher, Laura Basterretxea Badiola.
Alberro and Otaegi address the issue from the point of view that the objective is not to survive, but to live better. Basterretxea has highlighted the need to consider the frailty of the elderly.
