Teams Research
Constructing the first craniofacial database where each subject
contains multiple images that span from late adolescences
through senescence.
Formulate understanding of the mechanisms of morphological
changes in the human face as it ages from late adolescence (i.e.,
ages 18-21 years) to senescence (i.e., ages 60+ years).
