# STATISTICAL ANALYSIS OF BIOMARKERS OF AGING

> **NIH NIH R01** · UNIVERSITY OF TEXAS AT AUSTIN · 1993 · $131,715

## Abstract

The complex phenomenon of aging has been observed in nearly all
multicellular organisms that have been studied.  The purpose of this
proposal is to produce a single panel of biomarkers of aging, based upon
rodent animal models.  In particular, this proposal responds to the request
for a comprehensive statistical analysis designed to bring together the
results of all of the research conducted as a part of this Biomarkers of
Aging Research RFA (NIH/NIA RFA AG-91-17), using the procedures of
mathematical statistics, mathematical modeling, and advanced scientific
visualization techniques to permit a statistically, as well as
scientifically/biologically valid assessment of the gerontologic age of
rodents of the genotype specified in the RFA using a panel of applicable
biomarkers of aging.  In order to test the effects of potential strategies
and interventions, on the extension of the vigorous and the productive
years of life, it is important that viable biomarkers of aging be
developed.  The development of biomarkers of aging is particularly
important if a scientific intervention strategy is to be developed for
humans.
