The St.Gallen Research Centre for Ageing, Welfare and Labour Market Analysis (SCALA) is structured around the three central research topics work, ageing, and welfare which are investigated by professors Heike Bruch, Monika Bütler, Michael Lechner, Gebhard Kirchgässner, Winfried Ruigrok, Franz Schultheis, Dieter Thomä and Uwe Sunde as well as junior researchers from the University of St.Gallen.
