Risk factors and molecular determinants of aging-related diseases (RID-AGE)
Research unit - U 1167
The main goal of our laboratory is to analyze, explore and understand the trends and determinants of major chronic diseases (cardiovascular and neurodegenerative) related to aging in order to propose new approaches for prevention and treatment, paving the way for personalized medicine and increased life expectancy without disability. Our laboratory is open to collaborations.
