Our laboratory investigates the fundamental mechanisms linking early-life development to aging, longevity and age-related diseases. Using genetically diverse mouse models and systems genetics approaches, our research addresses a critical question: How do early-life experiences shape lifelong health trajectories? Approach Our laboratory employs a comprehensive systems biology approach, integrating: Large-scale phenotyping across the lifespan Mouse genetics and genetic mapping Molecular and cellular biology Bioinformatics and computational analysis Collaborative multidisciplinary research Impact

Nancy couldn’t relax. As the day wore down, so did her nerves. She kept raising her voice and couldn’t get comfortable. Suggestions by family members of what to do were shot down or ignored.
