The science of aging is a rapidly evolving field that holds tremendous potential for improving human health and longevity. By unraveling the complex biological processes that underlie aging, researchers are opening up new avenues for intervention and prevention of age-related diseases. A...
The interview, besides reflecting the progression of most research projects done by Sinclair and his Harvard lab, provides also some excellent context to orient those viewers who are less familiar with the complex longevity and aging topics. So get a pen and paper, because you’re definitely goin...
A wave of scientists are saying no. They maintain thatagingis a disease—one that can be targeted, treated, and perhaps even reversed. Longevity—a quest as old as humanity itself—is the wellness world’s latest buzzword, appearing everywhere from specialty gyms such as Longev...
violate my previous training, my preconceived notions of aging. This is because our ability to make real progress--to shakeloose from the tyranny of old ideas--will depend on our ability to uncover the most reliable clues.This will demand linguisticreadiness--a willingness...
The genetic analysis of aging in the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae has revealed the importance of metabolic capacity, resistance to stress, integrity of gene regulation, and genetic stability for longevity. A balance between these life maintenance processes is sustained by the RAS2 gene, which channel...

Exploring the science behind ageing, including the causes of ageing, what can extend your life, and whether the latest longevity trends have any scientific merit. Entering his late 40’s Professor John Tregoning realised he may not be as immortal as he once thought. Drawing on his 25 year ...
activation of DNA damage response. However, the authors uncovered that cell membrane damage induces cellular senescence via a different mechanism that involves calcium ions and the tumor suppressor gene p53. These findings may contribute to develop a strategy to achieve healthy longevity in the future...
Innovative Trends in Aging and Longevity Science: “The future ain’t what it used to be.” In this webinar Dr. Mark Pettus will explore some of the most exciting trends in aging and longevity research. He will translate this science to promote actionable lifestyle medicine considerations that...
The ongoing revolution in aging research was manifested by the Second International Conference “Genetics of Aging and Longevity” (Moscow, April 22-25, 2012). It was organized by the Science for Life Extension Foundation in collaboration with the Gerontological Society of the Russian Academy of Sc...
