Project Description |
Ageing is highly complex involving multiple biochemical and cellular
mechanisms affecting multiple tissues within the organism. This inherent
complexity means that although work on the biology of ageing is now
advancing fast, information remains highly fragmented. Our goal is to
deliver a web-based system that will serve the biology-of-ageing research
community by helping to integrate data and hypotheses from diverse
biological sources. We aim to create a community-based web of activity that
will sustain the functions of BASIS beyond the initial 4-year period of
funding. Please join us in making this happen. |
