Through the quantitative analysis of individual plant roots and from root length measurements over time, an estimation of dynamical parameters such as relative cell elongation rates, meristematic activity rate, and time spent in the EZ was obtained (see description in Appendix Text: Section S1.A and formulae in Table EV2 both for Approach 1 and Approach 2).
So what we now want to pursue, now that we have that resolution, is to see how we can take advantage of that to study the function of the cell at that scale so that we can use that as a biomarker because many of the clinical measurements these days focus on structure and that is usually a very late indicator of the disease.
While chromospheric activity measurements suggest that the star may be as young as 500 million years (see HD 101501 in Table 2 from Don Barry, 1988), the lack of an easily observable dust disk — as is found at Epsilon Eridani — suggests that the stars could be well over a billion years old.
