To function properly, neurons need to recycle cellular waste before it becomes toxic. When neurons can no longer do that, ...

Geroscience shifts the medical focus from treating individual diseases to targeting the fundamental biological drivers of aging. Cellular senescence involves aging cells that cease division but ...

Cellular senescence is commonly defined as a state characterized by permanent cell cycle arrest in the absence of cell death, in which cells have altered function. While cellular senescence has been ...

The research, published May 27 in Nature, reveals conserved signatures of aging and health decline and introduces new ...

As the quest to extend human lifespan gains momentum, a select group of scientists is pioneering efforts to reverse the aging process. Inside state-of-the-art laboratories, researchers are ...

Epigenetic aging clocks use DNA methylation patterns to measure biological age and predict health risks across human tissues.

DNA methylation is a key epigenome component that helps dictate how genes are expressed, contributing to normal cell and tissue differentiation during development, as well as the process of biological ...

Our communities thrive because of the dedicated, passionate leaders who work with local organizations, aging adults and families. You could be one of them! UW’s human development and family sciences ...
