Rule-based cell systems model of aging using feedback loop motifs mediated by stress responses.

Investigating the complex systems dynamics of the aging process requires integration of a broad range of cellular processes describing damage and functional decline co-existing with adaptive and protective regulatory mechanisms. We evolve an integrated generic cell network to represent the connectiv...
