Exploring the depths of biology in an original way.

We use massive data mining and systems biology approaches to study aging and age-related diseases. Our unique twist is to embrace quantitative studies of science. We use these as tools to discover fundamental biology where other scientists are unlikely to look.

If you're seeking information on Reinhard Stoeger, an unrelated scientist specializing in aging research, you can access his lab's webpage here.

Quantitive Studies of Science

Science builds upon previous discoveries. We use quantitative studies of science to develop tools that enable biological research laboratories to venture off the beaten track in a safe and productive way.

Aging and Age-Related Disease

Why does the activity of genes change with aging? Why does aging affect our recovery from disease?
