Aging Biology
Senescence, telomeres, epigenetics, longevity genes
01. Overview
Aging biology tracks the upstream mechanisms that drive decline across tissues and systems. This topic focuses on the hallmarks of aging, the molecular signatures that reveal biological age, and the interventions most likely to shift healthspan rather than just disease endpoints.
This is the strategic layer beneath nearly every longevity protocol: if we understand the mechanisms, we can judge whether a therapy is cosmetic, symptomatic, or truly age-modifying.

A clinical lens on aging biology research
The frontier of biology — what aging actually is, and which of the hallmarks are tractable in humans this decade.
Use this topic to separate elegant mouse data from the much smaller body of human evidence.

- Mouse-to-human translation is brutal
- Cellular reprogramming is real but early
- Senolytics show signal in narrow contexts
- Replication is the gold standard
- Is this human evidence or mouse?
- Has it replicated?
- Would I bet a decade on this?
