Longevity research is advancing rapidly from "summary" of Lifespan by David Sinclair,Matthew D. Laplante
Longevity research is advancing rapidly. Scientists are making groundbreaking discoveries that could revolutionize our understanding of aging and disease. One key finding is that aging is not inevitable, but rather a malleable process that can be influenced by various factors. By studying the biology of aging, researchers have identified several pathways and molecules that play a crucial role in determining lifespan. These findings have opened up new possibilities for developing interventions that could extend human lifespan and improve health in old age. One of the most promising areas of longevity research is the field of epigenetics. This branch of science studies how environmental factors can influence gene expression and contribute to aging. By understanding how epigenetic changes occur, scientists hope to develop therapies that can reverse or slow down the aging process. An...
