A new Harvard-led study suggests that transplanted hearts can begin to take on the biological age of the people they enter, with older hearts showing molecular signs associated with rejuvenation inside younger recipients. The research is still preliminary, but it raises a …

From wrinkled skin to weary hearts, the passage of time seemed an internal affair, a private conversation between cells and their slow decline. Science, too, has followed this intuition, seeking aging’s root causes in the microscopic breakdown …

Most efforts have focused on developing drugs that remove harmful proteins from the brain, but a new study suggests something far simpler may also make a difference. Researchers have found that a specialized brain-training game could reduce dementia risk …

Recent research suggests that vitamin D supplementation may help slow the shortening of telomeres, which are protective DNA caps located at the ends of …
