This core will provide support for all other components of the Center. The specific aims are: 1. To stimulate botanicals research on age-related diseases; 2. To enhance career development;; 3. To administer a pilot grant program; 4. To assist with design and statistical analysis of experimental studies performed by the Center; and 5. To provide administrative support for the Center.
