This project aims to uncover sex-specific molecular marks that either predict or mediate healthy ageing across multiple tissues in humans. This project expects to generate new knowledge of cellular heterogeneity and epigenetic control of phenotype and healthy ageing. Further, we anticipate to uncover age-associated changes that differ between males and females, an area of chronic research under representation. These outcomes will lead to a comprehensive understanding of fundamental biological processes across lifespan, and our development of an open access atlas will underpin evidence-based personalised health strategies to keep Australians healthier for longer.

该项目旨在发现预测或介导人类多个组织健康衰老的性别特异性分子标记。该项目期望产生关于细胞异质性以及表型和健康衰老的表观遗传控制的新知识。此外，我们预计会发现男性和女性之间与年龄相关的变化，这是一个长期研究领域。这些结果将导致对整个生命周期的基本生物过程的全面了解，而我们开发的开放获取图集将支持基于证据的个性化健康策略，使澳大利亚人保持更长久的健康。
