At ACDC, we are not just studying disease—we are redefining the future of aging and cardiovascular health through groundbreaking science and innovative treatment strategies.

The Aging + Cardiovascular Discovery Center (ACDC) is a dynamic research hub powered by dedicated scientists whose expertise and innovation are driving transformative discoveries. 

Our research focuses on uncovering the genetic and molecular mechanisms behind aging-related diseases—including heart attacks, kidney failure, lung disease, and Alzheimer’s disease. These discoveries form the foundation for developing new therapeutic approaches that aim to improve patient outcomes. 

Equipped with cutting-edge technology, our laboratories position us at the forefront of biomedical research. Our single-cell genomics core allows researchers to analyze gene expression at the level of individual cells—offering insights far beyond traditional methods. Additionally, our newly established metabolomics core precisely measures metabolites to track metabolic changes and cell signaling pathways with unprecedented accuracy.
