Brief description Frailty is a state of high vulnerability for adverse health outcomes, and the prevalence of frailty increases with increasing age. There is very little known about why frailty develops, and there is also no widely accepted, efficient method of determining if someone is frail. This project will test blood markers for frailty, that will allow for optimization of treatment for older frail people and use mouse models of frailty to learn more about why frailty develops.
