The Aging Gap Between Species

Aging is a puzzle to solve. This process is traditionally studied in a couple of biological models like fruit flies, worms and mice. What all these species have in common is their fast aging. This is excellent for lab budgets. It is a great short-term strategy. Who has time to study species that live for decades? But lifespan differences among species are orders of magnitude larger than any lifespan variation achieved in the lab. This is the reason for which I studied countless information ...
