Central to the research endeavour is the active participation of families from diverse backgrounds and age groups. The team is looking for families with members of all ages: teens (10-19), parents and middle-aged adults (40-59), grandparents (60-79), and even great-grandparents (80+).
Participants in the study will undergo a series of advanced blood-based assessments along with cognitive, functional and nutritional assessments that will help them to better understand the status of their present and future health. Rigorous measures will be implemented to ensure the privacy and confidentiality of all participants, with data handled under strict ethical guidelines and regulatory standards. (ANI)
