Annotation	Cell senescence is likely to underlie many age-related deleterious changes seen in the body. There is increasing evidence from both observation and intervention that senescent cell accumulation correlates with ageing and causes detrimental changes. This project set out to study the biochemical pathways leading to cell senescence, in order to permit future development of targeted strategies that would delay or even avoid the onset of senescence. A feature of this research was developing a new molecular tool to induce senescence in cells grown in the lab.
