This week, we explore new research on reversing cellular aging, the connection between weight and cognitive decline, and promising discoveries that could lead to new approaches to Alzheimer’s disease and healthy aging.
Are you part of a health or life extension research organization? Our coalition has grown to over 90 member groups, including 25 major US organizations and 16 major international groups. We hope your organization will be next! Check below to find a link to join our coalition quickly and easily.
All this and more this week. Join us as we move forward into another exciting month of incredible opportunities in this burgeoning and revolutionary field.

Scientists Reverse a Sign of Aging in Mice With Vitamin-Related Drug
Researchers report that a vitamin-related experimental treatment reversed a sign of aging in mice, suggesting a potential new direction for investigating age-related decline.
Extra Weight May Be Aging Your Brain Faster Than You Think
A 24-year study involving more than 8,200 adults found that higher body mass index was associated with faster declines in memory and cognitive function, highlighting weight management as a potential strategy for supporting brain health.
Scientists Discover a Way to Reverse Aging in Liver Cells, Offering New Hope for Alzheimer’s Research
Researchers at USC found that an experimental drug restored aging liver cell function in rats, reducing circulating levels of an Alzheimer’s-associated protein by approximately 50% and suggesting a promising new avenue for future treatments.
Scientists Reverse 60 Years of Aging in Human Cells
Researchers at the University of Bonn successfully reprogrammed blood cells from an 80-year-old donor into neural stem cells with molecular characteristics of cells younger than 20, offering new insights into cellular rejuvenation and age-related neurological diseases.
