The Synergy program investigates the biological mechanisms behind aging variability in genetically identical organisms. By studying mice, it aims to identify factors influencing aging and develop strategies to mitigate age-related diseases and extend healthy lifespan.
Aging is the biggest risk factor for frailty and death.
However, we lack basic understanding of a fundamental question:
Why do genetically identical organisms raised in the same conditions get sick and die at different times?
If we understood the stochastic timer that drives aging in each individual, we could devise ways to turn back the timer and treat age-related diseases, extending the healthy lifespan.
This requires addressing both molecular and social factors that vary between individuals,…
