NIA PREDICTIVE BIOMARKERS INITIATIVE

Each academic center is focused on the development of aging biomarkers and related research tools, which are enabling a wide range of human observational and interventional studies. Their work is also enhancing the ability for treatment developers to identify new targets for interventions and to assess the effects and mechanisms driving new treatments... If you're interested in finding out more about this research and getting involved, or to contact us for any reason, let us know!... Given the rapid aging of the US population, there is an urgent need for countering aging-related diseases. The proposed study will integrate measures in circulation and skeletal muscle to generate a group of human markers, which can help us to test beneficial effect of a therapy on aging-related disease.
