Researchers create a massive single-cell atlas of the aging mouse brain, revealing how epigenetic changes and "jumping genes" drive neurodegeneration.

Neurodegenerative diseases affect more than 57 million people globally. The incidence of these diseases, from Alzheimer's to ...

New research suggests childhood cancer survivors may experience accelerated biological aging from treatments, potentially ...

We become forgetful as we age. This is often seen as a universal truth, but in fact it is far from universal: some people remain incredibly sharp at 100 years old, while others experience memory loss ...

Neurodegenerative diseases affect more than 57 million people globally. The incidence of these diseases, from Alzheimer's to Parkinson's to ALS and beyond, is expected to double every 20 years. Though ...

The brain plays a big part in the aging process, and scientists think they’ve pinpointed the specific cells that control it. In a study of mice, researchers at the Allen Institute identified certain ...

Surviving cancer at a young age may come with an unexpected cost: faster aging at both the cellular and brain levels. Researchers found that survivors often show signs of being biologically older than ...

An international research team has uncovered new insights into healthy brain aging. The researchers found that aging leads to the accumulation of defective energy molecules in the brains of aged mice, ...

The brain plays a big part in the aging process, and scientists think they’ve pinpointed the specific cells that control it. In a study of mice, researchers at the Allen Institute identified certain ...

You’ve likely experienced it: a day when your mind just feels a bit slow — finding the right words takes effort, processing feels sluggish, and recalling information takes longer than usual. People ...

There's research connecting poor dental care to higher dementia risk. We explore the connection between oral health and brain function and share practical steps to protect your cognitive health ...

The human body carries invisible markers that reveal how quickly we’re aging at the cellular level. These biological clocks tick differently for each person, influenced by genetics, environment, and ...
