Developing Effective Approaches to Extend Hematopoietic Healthspan by Targeting Cell-Extrinsic and Cell-Intrinsic Alterations at Middle Age
Description: Aging contributes to reduced function and elevated risk of various diseases in tissues throughout the body, including the blood system. The impact of aging on human health is of increasing societal concern due to the worldwide increase in age of the human population. Our research is relevant to public health because it will provide new knowledge that can be used to develop interventions to sustain a healthy blood system during aging.
