Background

About Jenna Bartley

My research focuses on translational studies into human aging with a focus on how immune responses and physical function decline as we get older. My unique education and training in both human subject (kinesiology) and basic (immunology) research allows me to understand and design research on multiple levels, from basic benchtop research and preclinical studies to human clinical studies. I believe to tackle many age-associated issues successfully a multifaceted, multisystem-based approach truly is necessary. My multidisciplinary research aims to uncover common pathways among the aging process and to develop potential interventions to prevent age-related declines in immune responses and help older adults maintain their independence into late life.
