Neurodegenerative diseases affect more than 57 million people globally. The incidence of these diseases, from Alzheimer's to Parkinson's to ALS and beyond, is expected to double every 20 years.

Geroscience examines the underlying biology of aging to delay chronic diseases and extend the healthy years of human life.

In a recent study published in the journal Nature, researchers developed spatial aging clocks using single-cell transcriptomics to explore cell-type-specific interactions and their impact on brain ...

As our hair goes gray and our muscles weaken with age, our immune system also changes. In particular, the stem cells that become blood or immune cells can develop mutations, potentially leading to ...

As we age with each passing year, we become more susceptible to chronic diseases like cancer, heart disease, and dementia.

Shorter protective caps on chromosomes called telomeres, a proposed marker of accelerated biological cell aging, may be associated with an increased risk of stroke, dementia and late-life depression, ...
