- Waylon J. Hastings and Christian Behrens discuss Bayer Pharma's Hurdle Project, focusing on translational biomarkers of inflammaging for precision health. They highlight the project's collaborative development, omics-based quantification of SCI biomarkers, and the integration of the InflammAge clock, which outperforms traditional cytokine and DNAm clocks, with future support through the Biolearn platform.

Dr. Waylon J. Hastings, Assistant Professor in the Department of Nutrition at Texas A&M University, specializes in developing and validating methods to measure biological age and functional decline. With a dual-title PhD from Penn State, he collaborates with the Telomere Research Network, CALERIE™ Clinical Trial, and COMETS to explore the impact of stress and metabolism on aging mechanisms. His work, featured in outlets like Science Daily and the New York Post, aims to enhance interventions for improving healthspan.
Dr. Christian Behrens is an Associate Director of Medical Affairs at Bayer Pharmaceuticals.
