Fighting Immunosenescence

Thumbnail

We're delighted to announce another new collaboration with the Buck Institute for Research on Aging: Dr. Judith Campisi will host a project seeking ways to eliminate senescent immune cells, which contribute to a vicious cycle of age-related decline in immune function.

Aging Runs In The Blood

Thumbnail

Surgically connecting young and old mice reverses some aspects of aging, but isn't practical for humans! Fortunately for us, new SRF-funded work shows that transfusions of young blood produce many of the same benefits - paving the way towards human trials.

More Progress in Senolytics

Thumbnail

Deleting senescent cells from mice delays many age-related diseases. A recent paper from the Unity Biotechnology team, who aim to start human trials in 12-18 months, now identifies atherosclerosis as another deadly condition which may be prevented by senolytic drugs.

Our 115-Year Shelf Life?

Thumbnail

A recent demographic analysis in Nature by Vijg et al. has attracted global attention after concluding that there is a "natural limit" of around 115 years to human lifespans - but has also been criticised for undue pessimism regarding future medical advances.
