Life runs on information. In living systems, that information takes two main forms: the genome and the epigenome. The genome stays mostly stable. The epigenome, however, constantly shifts, shaped by ...

Genetically modified human cells have achieved a remarkable feat by regenerating several organs in aged primates, as if time had been partially reversed for their tissues. This experimental ...

As we age, our immune system quietly loses its edge, and scientists have uncovered a surprising reason why. A protein called ...

As our understanding of aging evolves, so do the tools doctors use to slow it down—or even reverse it. Age-reversal techniques are no longer confined to futuristic fantasies; they are already being ...

Researchers at Harvard Medical School were able to reverse aging in mice. Now they’re trying to get the same result in humans. Scientists at The Sinclair Lab, which focuses on the study of aging and ...

Here’s what you’ll learn when you read this story: Researchers have found that serum from younger blood can be combined with bone marrow cells and injected into older skin cells, producing ...

That inevitability of growing older might not be as fixed as we once believed. Emerging research has begun challenging our most fundamental assumptions about aging, revealing that cellular ...

Alzheimer's disease is the most common cause of dementia and affects more than a tenth of Americans aged 65 and older. The disease has proven difficult to develop new treatments for, and available ...
