This sounds like a really cool project, I am a data point in it somewhere, and I have no idea what became of that, or what the hell, or where to find out.  I do have one important piece of information: it really is connected to Stanford somehow.

I think your data may not be required any longer.  A study of how
aging biomarkers change over time usually requires blood tests at
least annually. Your 30-year interval was only because you moved away
from your recruitment address.

The Snyder lab at Stanford Medical appears to be working in this area.
