| Summary: | The understanding of human ageing contributes to the overall improvement of healthcare and opens the door to the increase of life expectancy and quality of life. Studies on human ageing, which are evidence-based, require data. Although some efforts have been put to concentrate datasets in single reference points, many datasets remain hidden in articles, studies and research projects websites. In this paper, we aim at identifying those datasets that have been used for the study of human ageing and make them easy to find to researchers in the field. To do so, we have analysed wellknown literature databases, previous reviews, and specialised sources. We have reviewed the available data and, as a result, we have identified and discussed 28 datasets. Hence, this article provides an organised reference point to datasets for researchers interested in the study of human ageing and contributes to their visibility. |
