Study Background
Our researchers want to learn more about mobility and cognition in older adults.
Senescent (old) cells can accumulate in the body with aging and contribute to problems with mobility (walking speed and balance) and memory. The goal of this study is to determine whether taking two study medications, Dasatinib and Quercetin, can reduce senescent cells in older adults, and whether they can improve mobility and memory.

Additional Information
This research study will explore whether taking two study medications, Quercetin and Dasatinib, changes memory, mobility, and levels of senescent (old) cells in older adults.
You may qualify for this study if you meet the following criteria.
Inclusion Criteria:
Inclusion Criteria:
- 65+ years old
- Slow walking speed and/or balance concerns
- Memory concerns
- No history of Alzheimer's or dementia
First, there will be a screening visit involving a physical exam, health history questions, and blood and urine tests. If you qualify for the study, you will then complete 7 study visits involving memory tests, physical and balance assessments, and take study medications (Quercetin and Dasatinib).
Participants will be compensated up to $300 for their time.
There is no cost for you to participate in this study.
Study visits will take place at the Marcus Institute for Aging Research in Roslindale, MA. Parking or transportation is provided.
