Bridging Physics and Aging Biology: Insights from the First Physics in Aging Biology Workshop
Research in aging has often been descriptive, with few quantitative laws to explain how organisms change with age.However, physicists often build quantitative models to explain observed phenomena and how they change with time.We believe that merging physics with aging biology will help us to develop a deeper understanding of the biology of aging.The Physics in Aging Biology Workshop brought together a diverse group of aging biologists and physicists to exchange ideas on how theoretical physics and complexity science approaches could lead to a better understanding of the aging process.
