Models

The FEM models how metabolic slowdown will induce the age-related changes of weight gain, insulin resistance, basal inflammation, mitochondrial dysfunction, as well as the age-related disease of atherosclerosis, via a series of unavoidable homeostatic shifts.

A population of turtles have between 1 and 3 genes contributing to the strength of selective destruction, which can either cause ageing or allow for negligible senescence.

Model of selective destruction in a single population of cells with differing sensitivities for growth. Fast growing cells can be epigenetically converted to slower cells rather than simple cell death as in previous models.
