This project will pool anthropological, medical and philosophical skills that will be exercised on the basis of clinical and scientific knowledge provided by geriatric professionals. It will focus on the phenomenon of aging in its many dimensions as a physiological process, an experience lived in relation to specific contexts

In this project we are interested in red blood cell diseases and the vascular abnormalities in which they may be involved, with a particular focus on dyserythropoiesis and blood cell interactions in the circulation. Initially we will concentrate our efforts on sickle cell disease as a pathological model, then we will extend our methodology to explore other diseases, notably membrane diseases, in which potential defects in erythropoiesis have never been examined.
Our transfusion research is focused on improving transfusion products, with RBC as the primary focus.
