To cure age-related diseases, shouldn’t we study aged animals? 🐴🐒 The answer is yes, and Gordian makes this possible with our singular in vivo gene therapy screening platform. @TheAlexKnapp explains how this could change industry standards in @Forbes :

To achieve this, we have to start testing therapies in the context of what drives these illnesses: aging. We must unclog the bottleneck of animal testing, especially for complex age-related diseases, and turn the tide of repeated failed clinical trials. Sounds great, but how?

Great work - public resources qualifying and benchmarking disease models will help researchers who aren't exposed to patients or drug discovery avoid work that's "translational in name only". And this study is comprehensive and nuanced in assessing relevance to patients.
