But there’s hope. Longevity science offers a path forward. It’s the only field uniquely positioned to prevent the chronic diseases of aging, extend healthy years, and reduce long-term costs. And despite the noise in Washington, it’s still one of the rare issues that enjoys bipartisan support.

Your research on the brain’s regulation of appetite and thirst, particularly its sex-dependent mechanisms is incredibly valuable, especially as we seek to better understand these processes in the context of aging!

His research in uncovering the mechanisms behind the formation of cytoplasmic chromatin fragments in aging and senescence, with the goal of developing alternatives to senolytic drugs for treating age-related diseases and promoting healthy aging is super inspiring! :)

Some say the eye is the window to the brain! With just a year left in her PhD track, Emily is excited to trade mice for humans soon. :)

While ELOVL2 is often studied for its connection to methylation and biological aging, there's so much more to uncover in the eye—it’s truly a focal point of discovery!

In this episode, we discuss how she found her way to studying the eye—specifically, her research on the role of the gene ELOVL2 in the retina and the importance of polyunsaturated fatty acids in maintaining retinal function and integrity.

We must share our stories! It’s what makes us unique, connects us to one another, and builds trust with the world we serve.

I'd love to highlight more scientists, especially trainees, since their voices are most needed right now! If you want me to shine a spotlight on you and your contribution to science, please fill out the form below, and I'll reach out to you!

At A4LI, we’re working to bridge this gap by educating the public and policymakers on the importance of longevity science. Learn more about our advocacy and the longevity biotech companies and organizations we work with to push for policies that support innovation and access at www.a4li.org.

This confirms what we’ve known all along: longevity science needs better public awareness and accurate information—not hype and misinformation we currently face.

🔹 Science over politics. Many Americans support the right to try safe drugs, even if they haven’t passed efficacy trials.
