Creator description · original textText language: English
Ageing is not inevitable deterioration — it is a biological process driven by specific mechanisms: telomere shortening, cellular senescence, mitochondrial dysfunction, and epigenetic drift. Scientists are now targeting these mechanisms directly. This video explains the hallmarks of ageing and the interventions — from rapamycin to senolytics — that are already extending healthy lifespan in animals.
