Briefly

Aging is perceived as undesirable, but significant research developments have improved our understanding of its cellular aspects. Dr. Ana Maria Cuervo, a key figure in this field and co-director of the Einstein Institute for Aging Research, leads initiatives including a clinical trial involving centenarians.
