Age is the key risk factor for diseases and disabilities of the elderly. Efforts to tackle age-
related diseases and increase healthspan have suggested targeting the ageing process …

Longer human lives have led to a global burden of late-life disease. However, some older
people experience little ill health, a trait that should be extended to the general population …

Background: Measures to quantify changes in the pace of biological aging in response to
intervention are needed to evaluate geroprotective interventions for humans. Previously, we …

Identifying reliable biomarkers of aging is a major goal in geroscience. While the first
generation of epigenetic biomarkers of aging were developed using chronological age as a …

Biological aging of human organ systems reflects the interplay of age, chronic disease,
lifestyle and genetic risk. Using longitudinal brain imaging and physiological phenotypes …

Animal studies show aging varies between individuals as well as between organs within an
individual,,–, but whether this is true in humans and its effect on age-related diseases is …

Over time, the human DNA methylation landscape accrues substantial damage, which has
been associated with a broad range of age-related diseases, including cardiovascular …

Background Traditional metrics for population health ageing tend not to differentiate
between extending life expectancy and adding healthy years. A population ageing metric …

The geroscience hypothesis proposes that therapy to slow or reverse molecular changes
that occur with aging can delay or prevent multiple chronic diseases and extend healthy …

The search for reliable indicators of biological age, rather than chronological age, has been
ongoing for over three decades, and until recently, largely without success. Advances in the …
