Longevity Studies

Meaning

Longevity studies are systematic scientific investigations focused on identifying the biological, genetic, and environmental factors that contribute to extended, healthy human lifespan, known as healthspan. These studies encompass research on fundamental aging mechanisms, including cellular senescence, telomere dynamics, and mitochondrial function, as well as the impact of lifestyle and pharmacological interventions. The ultimate objective is to translate findings into actionable clinical strategies that compress the period of age-related morbidity. They provide the evidence base for pursuing physiological youthfulness.
