About
Human Health Monitoring Center
The Human Health Monitoring Center will provide Technion researchers the ability to efficiently profile, at high resolution, the physiological (clinical and molecular) status of healthy and unhealthy patient volunteers. The Center will launch, populate, and maintain the Lifespan Cohort, a comprehensive study of aging individuals and their respective wellness markers.
The Wolfe Center for Translational Medicine and Engineering will be the future permanent home of the Human Health Monitoring Center (HHMC). The HHMC will conduct evaluations in key aging-related domains, including cardiovascular health, gait and motion, cognition, wellness, and nutrition. It will also house a biobank for the collection, processing, and storage of clinical samples. Fully equipped clinics staffed by skilled medical professionals will serve as the backbone of this effort.
Lifespan Cohort
The Technion’s Lifespan Cohort will track over 1,000 adult volunteers across all decades of life, collecting clinical, molecular, physiological, environmental, and social data over time. Volunteers will regularly undergo clinical tests, provide biospecimens, and be monitored using wearables and questionnaires. The Human Health Monitoring Center will support this effort by enabling high-re solution profiling of both healthy and unhealthy participants.
This effort will expand to a cross-sectional study of over 10,000 people through partnerships with hospitals and HMOs.

Biobank
The biobank is an integral part of the Human Health Monitoring Center in The Wolfe Center, supporting clinical trials focused on healthy aging. It is a modern, state-of-the-art infrastructure designed to ensure high-quality collection, processing, and long-term storage of biological samples. The biobank will operate according to international standards, enabling reliable and reproducible research outcomes. By integrating advanced technologies with rigorous quality control, it will provide a critical foundation for translational and clinical aging research.
