Longevity Science Basis

Meaning

The Longevity Science Basis encompasses the foundational biological, molecular, and genetic principles that govern the rate of aging and determine healthspan and lifespan in humans. This scientific framework integrates research from gerontology, genetics, and molecular biology, focusing on the fundamental processes of cellular damage, repair, and senescence. Understanding this basis allows for the development of targeted interventions designed to modulate the intrinsic aging mechanisms. Key pillars include the study of telomere dynamics, mitochondrial function, and epigenetic regulation.
