Deciphering the timing and impact of life-extending interventions: temporal efficacy profiler distinguishes early, midlife, and senescence phase efficacies - Nature Communications
A growing number of compounds are reported to extend lifespan, but it remains unclear whether they reduce mortality across the entire life course or only at specific ages. Here the authors introduce a...

New methodological appraisal of the DrugAge database of longevity drugs 💊

Our analysis of 667 anti-ageing studies shows poor reporting, big species differences, and limited translation to mammals.

Work led by Austin Parish with many great collaborators.
