Will Interventions that Delay Aging in Animals Work for Humans?

Researchers have shown that using certain agents targeting hallmarks of aging (like inflammation) can extend lifespan in mice, yet human trials are just beginning to uncover whether they work in humans.

Harvard anti-aging expert Dr. David Sinclair says that low-dose Viagra has become popular, but why?


Some studies suggest that Viagra may treat Alzheimer's disease. 

Brain &amp; Neurons

AI may be capable of discovering drugs that target the multitude of biological processes thought to underlie the aging process.  

AI may identify new targets for anti-aging drugs that humans may have overlooked.
