I was acctually thinking of something like this but it seams someone allready is doing it..:

"Ageing is highly complex involving multiple biochemical and cellular mechanisms affecting multiple tissues within the organism.
This inherent complexity means that although work on the biology of ageing is now advancing fast, information remains highly fragmented.
Our goal is to deliver a web-based system that will serve the biology-of-ageing research community by helping to integrate data and hypotheses from diverse biological sources.
We aim to create a community-based web of activity that will sustain the functions of BASIS beyond the initial 4-year period of funding. Please join us in making this happen. "
