Proposed Analysis: During the past decade, I worked on deriving robust transcriptional aging markers and established a mathematical method to quantify the sample age with those markers. I not only successfully validated this method with external datasets, but also discovered the novel aging markers. Due to the data limitation, the major samples are healthy donors. In order to extend my methodology to AD study to evaluate the associations between normal aging and AD, I request the access to the current ADNI data. This is a collaborative project with Dr. Wendy Qiu and Dr. Jean-Pierre Roussarie from Boston University School of Medicine.
