The Hallmarks of Aging

A guide to the biological processes researchers believe drive aging at the cellular level, and why they matter for longevity science.

Glossary Term

Longevity

The capacity to live a long, healthy life. In modern science, longevity refers not just to maximum lifespan but to the extension of healthspan, the years lived in full physical and cognitive health.
