Research on lifespan extension
Research on lifespan extension explores ways to prolong healthy life by studying genetics, biology, and lifestyle factors that influence aging. Scientists investigate molecules, drugs, and therapies that can slow down cellular aging and improve resilience against age-related diseases. While some advances show promise, most research remains in early stages, and practical applications are still being developed. The goal is to understand the fundamental processes of aging to improve health span—how long people live healthily—potentially enabling longer, healthier lives in the future.
