Scientists are optimistic about breakthroughs in targeting the basic biology of aging to slow it down and extend the years lived with good health. Northwestern University Feinberg School of Medicine is recruiting study participants for interventions testing.
But recently I've been digging into a new wave of longevity research that is making it an exciting time to be an aging human – which is all of us. It turns out, we all age at varying rates. Super-agers may have great genes, but research shows our habits and routines – everything from what we eat and how we move our bodies to who we spend our time with – matter a lot, when it comes to aging well.
Now, the next frontier is to target the basic biology of aging and come up with new interventions to slow it down. Many scientists are optimistic that we're on the cusp of breakthroughs. Not only to help us live longer, but — more importantly — to extend the number of years we live with good health. at Northwestern University Feinberg School of Medicine. They're recruiting study participants so that they can test what kinds of interventions may slow the rate of aging. To that end, I decided to roll up my sleeve for science. When I arrived on a late winter morning, the first step was a quick blood dra
