Qiuming's research interests lie in the fields of aging, cellular reprogramming, and rejuvenation. Specifically, his work is focused on identifying biomarkers involved in partial reprogramming and investigating their mechanisms in rejuvenation. He also has a strong interest in exploring epigenetic changes and miRNA that regulate cellular senescence and natural aging. In addition to sharing his perspectives on aging with friends, Qiuming enjoys engaging in various sports activities as well as listening to music and playing video games.

Louise Pitcher is studying the molecular and epigenetic mechanisms that drive aging, cellular senescence, and tissue rejuvenation. Her research focuses on how transcriptional and chromatin landscapes become altered with age and how we may revert these alterations through the use of epigenetic modulating compounds.
