Scientists discovered that restoring a declining brain protein called Menin reversed memory loss, bone thinning, and inflammation in aging mice. A simple amino acid supplement also improved brain function, offering new hope for treating age-related decline.
People who enjoy museums, concerts, and reading may be aging more slowly at a biological level. Scientists found that weekly arts activities slow aging at the same rate as regular exercise.
A new United Nations report reveals how shifting the narrative around aging could unlock trillion-dollar economic opportunities and improve wellbeing for millions. The way we talk about getting older shapes everything from public policy to how people view their own futures.
Over 50 leading researchers worldwide just published a groundbreaking vision for aging science that focuses on keeping people healthier longer, not just living more years. The shift from studying "how long" to "how well" people age could transform how we approach health throughout our lives.
Lawrence Tech is launching a Healthy Aging Innovation Center to help seniors live independently at home through smart technology and human-centered design. The free April 10 event will showcase innovations that make aging safer and more dignified.
The Cancer Support Community Greater San Gabriel Valley is celebrating three decades of helping cancer patients with their 36th Annual Angel Gala this April. The event brings together survivors, supporters, and donors to honor the community that makes free cancer care possible.
Australia's government has launched a rapid review of its aged care assessment system after families reported delays in receiving support. The three-month review will examine how the algorithm prioritizes cases.
After winning two Sundance awards for her debut feature, director Shuchi Talati centers older characters as complex, desiring humans in her new short film. Her work challenges cinema's habit of sidelining aging characters to supporting roles.
Researchers discovered biological aging markers shared by humans, mice, rats, and monkeys, opening doors to treatments that could extend human lifespan. The team built a free online tool so scientists worldwide can test anti-aging therapies faster.
Aging cells once thought to be harmful may actually protect your body, leading to smarter anti-aging treatments. Researchers are now developing precision therapies that target only the bad cells while keeping the helpful ones alive.
Researchers discovered shared genetic patterns of aging in humans, mice, rats, and monkeys that could predict lifespan and help develop treatments to extend healthy years. The breakthrough offers hope for tackling age-related diseases like dementia and heart disease.
Every year, 30,000 Indian teens age out of state care with little support. Two former care home residents created a tech platform connecting 3,200 young adults who help each other navigate independence.
A USC study of 3,800 older adults found that the shingles vaccine doesn't just prevent disease—it may actually slow biological aging. Vaccinated seniors showed lower inflammation and younger biological profiles than unvaccinated peers.
A groundbreaking study shows that taking a daily multivitamin for two years slowed biological aging by about four months in older adults. The effect was even stronger in people whose bodies were aging faster than their actual age.
Visiting museums and engaging with the arts could slow your biological aging just as much as hitting the gym, according to groundbreaking new research. Scientists found that both how often and how many ways people enjoy cultural activities actually impact aging at the molecular level.
Scientists discovered that a common diabetes medication protects aging kidneys by keeping blood vessels healthy and reducing inflammation. The breakthrough came from studying tiny fish that age in just months, letting researchers witness decades of organ aging in weeks.
A Yale study tracking 11,000 older Americans over 12 years found that 45% improved in cognitive ability, physical performance, or both. Your beliefs about aging may predict whether you're one of them.
Rajpal Yadav and his wife Radha just celebrated over two decades together, proving that a 13-year age gap and cultural differences are no match for genuine connection. Their story shows how humor, mutual support, and shared values build relationships that last.
A prestigious grant is funding groundbreaking research into why some people stay sharp and healthy into old age while others become frail. MIT scientist Alison Ringel will investigate whether our immune system's T cells hold the key to extending healthy years of life.
A rigorous two-year study found that people over 60 who took daily multivitamins showed slightly slower biological aging than those who didn't. While the effect is modest, researchers found no harmful side effects.
