TRANSLATIONAL GEROSCIENCE NETWORK

Geroscience is a research paradigm based in understanding the genetic, molecular and cellular mechanisms that make aging a major risk factor for and driver of common chronic conditions and diseases of older people. Geroscience research seeks to understand how aging affects the disease process and to use that knowledge to slow the rate of aging, reverse its effects, and delay or even cure age-related diseases. The Translational Geroscience Network (TGN) is a collaboration of researchers looking at clinical interventions that target fundamental mechanisms of aging to delay, prevent or treat age-related diseases and disabilities as a group, instead of one at a time...
