HW Biological Aging

Have you ever wondered how the body ages?

An expert on the genetic basis for aging, Dr. Karl Riabowol, offers some clues. Dr. Riabowol has published 135 papers and has received numerous awards for his works including an award for excellence in aging research. His studies have investigated connections between telomere length and longevity and epigenetic proteins which regulate gene activity [does this also have implications for longevity?]. He heads the Cancer Biology research group at the University of Calgary and also teaches at the Cumming School of Medicine.
