Utility of omic-based biomarkers in characterizing older individuals at risk for frailty, its progression to disability and general consequences to health and well-being - The FRAILOMIC Initiative (FRAILOMIC)
Date du début: 1 janv. 2013, Date de fin: 31 déc. 2017,
The forecasted increase in the number of older people for this century will be accompanied by an increase of those with disabilities. Disability is usually preceded by a condition named frailty that encompasses changes associated with ageing, life styles and chronic diseases. To detect and intervene on it is of outstanding importance to prevent disability, as recovery from disability is unlikely. ...

Impact of Prenatal Stress on BRAIN AGEing (BRAINAGE)
Date du début: 1 mars 2012, Date de fin: 28 févr. 2017,
Healthy brain ageing is a major determinant of quality life-long health, allowing integration into society at all ages. Human epidemiological and animal studies indicate that in addition to life style and genetic factors, environmental influences in prenatal life have a major impact on brain ageing and age-associated brain disorders. We hypothesize that: (1) prenatal stress programs early brain ag ...

Identifying biomarkers of ageing using whole transcriptomic sequencing (EuroBATS)
Date du début: 1 janv. 2011, Date de fin: 30 juin 2014,
Ageing is a fundamental biological process that defines all aspects of life, yet the understanding of the basic biological interactions leading to ageing and how genetic and environmental variation contributes to this processes are still largely unknown. We propose to use the most up to date genomic and epidemiological methodologies to shed light in some of the key questions in ageing research. We ...
