Can research into a rare, accelerated aging disease and "zombie cells" teach us something about the normal aging process? Did you know that a small molecule called NAD + plays a critical role in our ...

While clinical research is awash in studies comparing normal brains with brains affected by various diseases, comparisons of normal brains at a younger age with normal brains three or four decades ...

While chronological age is easily measured, it fails to capture the complex biological processes that determine the rate of aging. A new proteomic aging clock may predict biological age, mortality ...

An international research team has uncovered new insights into healthy brain aging. The researchers found that aging leads to the accumulation of defective energy molecules in the brains of aged mice, ...

Occasional forgetfulness—like misplacing items or struggling to recall a word—is a normal part of aging, especially if the information eventually comes back. Memory changes may be more concerning when ...

As we age, our cells don’t just wear down—they reorganize. Researchers found that cells actively remodel a key structure called the endoplasmic reticulum, reducing protein-producing regions while ...

Born in Leeds, Joe finished his Spanish degree in 2018 before becoming an English teacher to football (soccer) players and managers, as well as collaborating with various football media outlets in ...

Using an aging clock, researchers from the University of Cologne have used the Caenorhabditis elegans model organism to demonstrate that nerve cells age differently. They identified both the causes of ...

Maybe you were looking for your glasses only to find them on top of your head; or you walked into a room but immediately forgot why you went in there. Forgetfulness happens to all of us, regardless of ...
